If you can’t answer these questions, then you can’t make any claim about it being close to perfect.

At this point we are both asking each other to prove negatives now, as productive as that is. I think we can both agree to disagree.
You have shown that you don’t know anything about how many security flaws there are or how many are protected from by App Store curation, so your claims up to this point about security have simply been dishonest.
This isn’t about agreeing to disagree. It’s that you’ve just been making up false claims this whole time.

Nobody said app store curation is perfect, just that it is necessary in addition to OS security.
It’s not clear what you are trying to do now other than to distract from being caught in a lie.
The fact that you cannot begin to imagine a world where Apple's engineering capabilities exists beyond the App Store, nor are aware of the many, many security features they have enabled on both iOS and MacOS [0], speaks of your own skepticism towards Apple's ability to get the job done beyond the App Store. I suggest you read up on Apple's work into system security [1] and elsewhere. It's quite fascinating!

You don’t know how many flaws there are, how long before they are fixed, or how many are protected against by the App Store.
You have no facts and yet you continue to make a claim you know you can’t support. Indeed you have presented links that show for certain that Apple’s security is not perfect.
It seems like your ideas about the perfection of Apple’s security exist only in your imagination.
Do you know? I've provided many links about Apple's security, while you have only offered your own opinions. If you have any helpful information, it would definitely be appreciated.
How many security flaws are there, and when do you anticipate that they will all be eliminated?
If you can’t answer these questions, then you can’t make any claim about it being close to perfect, or even how good it is.
That is my position, and I'd rather discuss it at a different place, but thank you for letting me know where you stand, and now you know where I do.
