Wise or not it is the standard practice for all DIY tax programs ... and since MAC makes up a minority of computer users AND they do provide an ONLINE option I highly doubt they will change their methods anytime soon. Just last year the WIN 7 users got the same bad news after more then 10 years ... they were told to upgrade or use the online version and they were also upset. Unfortunately Apple has a more aggressive planned obsolescent business plan which requires an upgrade every 3-4 years.
