It may be Apple policy to prevent users from doing what they want because "security" is the most important thing for a their bank/shopping terminals. But I thought the whole point of using homebrew was to empower the user to use Apple devices like a normal computer without the hassle of having to do it manually? The developer has made it clear this is not the use case and that it helped with it was unintentional and undesired. The actual use case for homebrew remains unclear given this new information.
Well, 2. is what the people are asking for but aren't getting. They want deprecation and a ENV flag to enable. It'd be enough. But even that isn't being allowed which is weird for a power-user program. I can't help but think, "Don't obey in advance."
They're deprecating it and removing it. What is required is deprecating it and leaving it in (with env flag to enable) till it actually breaks rather than obeying in advance.
