Looks like we could “Ask Apple”…

https://developer.apple.com/events/ask-apple/

I would like to know how an open source project which relies on freely-shared 
plugins is supposed to exist on a platform that is making it harder on 
accessibility.

I have had a developer account for many years but that doesn’t mean I like 
jumping through these hoops after spending too long figuring them out. It would 
be nicer if you, as a user, could simply tell the system: “Pd can load whatever 
dynamic libs.”

It’s the same situation for other environments such as Max.
