No. AVs protect users from themselves in some OSes. In secure OSes are meaningless. Example: iOS.

that's another thing. But it's called social engineering.

"click me" doesn't apply (without 2 to 3 exploits) to iOS. phishing, scamming, ... cannot be solved with technology.

If u use AV, you still can't run untrusted exe. But now you have lots of new attack surface. You've made things worse.

If that was high-quality audited and sandboxed attack surface, fine. But you don't care. That's the problem.
