Privacy and data collection-wise MacOS is fine

At best it's "okay but not great".

It's their main selling point.

The millions of people who log into Facebook on their MacBooks prove that's not true.

I mean, if you log in to Facebook at all, whatever MacOS collects is a drop in a bucket in comparison.

I think their point is that people don't actually buy Apple products for privacy and therefore it's not "the main selling point".
