They kinda already did for niche use-cases. When they introduced the orange/green activity indicators for camera or microphone, they broke some workflows for VJing as your stage visuals now got a persistent dot in the top-right.

But it'd be far easier for me to fix it, even if I had to disable SyStEm iNtEgRiTy PrOtEcTiOn to do it.

In my humble opinion it’s best to prepare yourself for that to stop being possible, if you intend to stay on MacOS. We both know which way the wind is blowing on that, with the sealed System volume, etc. etc.

(I’m not happy about that - I used to love modifying the system in unapproved ways on Windows and Mac.)
