As a macOS user I don't agree.

Me: "ls ~/Downloads", mac-gui: Would you like to give "Terminal" access to the "Downloads" folder?

I really like it, and I miss it on Linux. On Linux, I have to trust that each and every sh/bash script, package install script, or some stuff you download from internet are actually safe and don't access your private stuff. On mac I get the prompt when some software needs to access a specific folder.
