Please deploy 1P8 to App Store

Hi there,

I had a bit of a search (admittedly it may have been a boy look) but I can't seem to find the reasoning behind not releasing 1Password 8 in the macOS App Store. I get some people will probably disagree with this, but having it on the App Store was such a useful feature for less technically inclined people (which i think 1P generally is good for). A lot of them don't want to have to go to an external website to download 1P, and some of them having grown up only ever using iPhones (or Android) and being used to an App Store style deployment system - it just makes sense.

Is it possible that someone from the 1P team can maybe elaborate/explain the reasoning behind not deploying to the macOS App Store? (& to a lesser extent the Windows Store?) - it just seems such a waste. The updates functionally of the App Store makes it so easy for those who aren't confident.

Cheers
