I think on macOS programs are able to store data "inside" themselves, because .app files are just folders. They usually shouldn't put stuff in Library.

That's wrong, of course they should put stuff in the ~/Library if necessary. That's why if you update an app it just replaces the whole .app directory, and also if you uninstall something and then install it again all your settings will still be there.

Not dynamic data. Everything in an .app should be checksummed/signed & verified
