There is also the external Python 3 that is not signed, which I may also bundle in the QGIS app, and additional python modules which are not signed.  Though loaded as a library to QGIS, I don't know if that matters.

So many users would still need to fuss with the macOS security to get that stuff installed and running.

Yes I believe one was purchased - perhaps William and Larry can collaborate on this since I think Larry has the OSGEO cert.
