I have an unaltered installation of 3.10 and the proper path to the executable 
is:

/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash

If your system drive is case sensitive, then this will matter.

(I note that I had to use “.app” in the path in Terminal, while you did not. 
I’m not sure if this is different with Alfred or Automator)

I can attest that this procedure works on Catalina as well. I have it open with 
two data files right now using this method.

Regards,
Adrien
