I'm aware it mentions Linux specifically, but this is golden:

> From this point on, the number of dot-files and dot-directories can only shrink as the remaining applications get fixed and start conforming to the XDG base directory spec, while no new dot-files and dot-directories can be added to your home directory.

As is original reasoning for not using ~/.config from https://github.com/dirs-dev/directories-rs/issues/62#issueco...

> As Apple keeps tightening its after-sale ownership of macOS appliances, it's becoming increasingly unlikely that randomly dumping stuff in $HOME will keep working.
