I've used Macs for years and never been aware of it.

Note: the tweeter couldn't provoke actual problems under any sort of normal usage. To make data loss show up he had to use weird USB hacks. If you know you have a battery and can forcibly shut down the machine 'cleanly' it's not really clear what the need for a hard fsync is.

CI machines are the definition of disposable data. Nobody is running Oracle on macOS and Apple don't care about that market.
