I'm sorry, but I can't take this question seriously.
The main evidence is that they haven't. I also believe that it would be quite damaging to an important part of their user base.
Other than that, you're essentially asking me to prove a negative.

Not as important as we'd hope. Look at iOS.

They could have said "we won't ever lock down macOS". They haven't.
I'll file this under "mark my words". Like this one :-D
