It still surprises me that such behavior is still allowed on modern macOS, which is supposed to be privacy focused. What’s the point of having an app sandbox when it is opt-in?

MacOS is not privacy focused, it's marketing focused.

Specifically: can we market this [feature/change/refusal/etc...]?

I've never heard people describe macOS as 'privacy focused.' Perhaps copywriting from Apple itself?

iOS maybe. macOS no.
