That’s fair. What’s the Apple-recommended way to avoid this? I interact with a lot of software and tend not to hit it but I also don’t really interact with downloaded executables

I assume Apple would prefer everyone use the Mac App Store exclusively? I'm not even sure if that solves the problem but it's a non-starter for me anyway.

You don't interact with downloaded executables? How do you procure your executables? From USB drives? Every single executable that didn't ship with the computer from the factory was downloaded. Even the ones built into the OS if you ever let it update.
