Very useful post Trevor, thank you. Can you confirm that the notarized standalone does NOT open in Mac OSX 10.9-10.11?
I could not find this info in the Apple official docs, but I believe this is the case. Unfortunately my old mac that ran OSX 10.10 has been upgraded to High Sierra, so I cannot test it myself.
