I would add that for those of us developing for the Mac platform, the security 
sessions have been critical for the last two years. Without a good 
understanding of the issues discussed in those sessions, I don’t see how a 
developer's application could run properly on Catalina.

I see the WWDC sessions as part of my job as a Mac developer. Staying up to 
date on Mac developments is critical, otherwise I become stale and not as 
useful in my work. So, I do devote time to watching important Mac WWDC videos 
for things that I need to learn or be refreshed on.
