...well, here we go. First complaint is against Google and just about every website and person that writes about MACs. Why? Straight forward answers. Below are some examples;

What Directory are macOS Operating System Upgrades Stored in when Downloaded from the "App Store"?

Finder Answer: Applications

Terminal Answer: /Applications

What does the .APP File Extension Indicate?

Normal Answer: An Application Bundle

Real Answer: It's actually a Directory that contains other Directories and Files

Windows Answer: .APP is sort of equivalent to .CAB Files, but more accessible.

Linux Answer: .APP is sort of an equivalent to an .RPM, but more and less.

How Can You Create an USB Drive with the Installer (.APP Files and stuff) on it?
