I'm not ignoring it, I just value freedom more. It's easy to make an almost perfectly safe society if we're all willing to give up on fundamental freedoms. I think the best solution preserves some core freedoms while making risky behavior harder. Between desktops and phones we've swung between two wildly different paradigms in the last couple decades. I don't think a bit of moderation on both ends (which is already happening with the OS as we see here) is a bad thing. But so far it seems mostly to be going one direction.
Apple is actually fairly good at making the warnings/process heavy-handed enough that only technical users will follow them.
For instance, the /System folder is not writable unless you reboot into single user or recovery mode, then run commands in a shell.
Several app developers (including Mojang with Minecraft) recommended turning off Gatekeeper to run their apps rather than dealing with developer signing or because they did not want to purchase a signing certificate. Apple eventually removed the option to disable gatekeeper from the UI (but retained it as a shell command).
The 'advanced user' override to run these apps has always been to select 'open' from the finder/context menu - but simply double-clicking on an app will give a failure screen, not an override/consent screen. (Yes - rather than telling users to right-click on their app, third parties told the users to disable app verification and quarantine for the whole system.)
