Thank you for the suggestion. It looks like Hopper does display selector names correctly.
Initially I was confused as to what I should have Hopper load. It looks like framework bundles (e.g. AppKit) don't have a binary file on disk like in former times. This post help explain things: https://mjtsai.com/blog/2020/06/26/reverse-engineering-macos-11-0/ <https://mjtsai.com/blog/2020/06/26/reverse-engineering-macos-11-0/> I pointed Hopper at the dyld shared cache, which seems to lump in all frameworks now, and the info I needed was parsed out. It's a shame Xcode can't bother to do this during debugging. Oh well.
