You are right, it is not very POSIX compatible anymore. I stopped updating my Mac at Monterey simply because they started doing what seems like a walled garden approach for their operative systems, for the software releases and installing binaries from non-approved sources makes you jump through hoops and is necessary to disable their crap most users won’t touch. But this is not even that old, IIRC it started going downhill when Mac OS X Mavericks was released.
Mac OS Mavericks went EOL 5 months ago. I would strongly recommend that you move to something still getting security updates. There are massive security problems with out of date Mac OS
Both being POSIX compatible doesn’t make them related, is just a standard way of deploying portable operating systems from the early days.
Mac OS isn’t even all that POSIX. I would much rather have Windows or Linux.

Did you even read that I use Monterey?
You said it in your comment
Yeah, Monterey. Not Mavericks.
