Let me quote what *YOU* said:-

"Me: When? Never on macOS... even Classic Mac. So when? Apple IIe?"

Does that help?!!!

This all goes back a very long time. EtreCheck was, at first, available 
on the Apple App Store. That was proof that John Daniel had been 
'vetted' by Apple and 'Notarized'. Then it was no longer available there.
Now taht Mr. Daniel has another software - Storeograph - availble from
the Apple App Store it is confirmation, once again, that JD has been
investigated, approved and "Notarized" by Apple.

At www.etrecheck.com it is now explained that old reports *ARE* retained.

"Uninstall:

To uninstall EtreCheckPro, just drag the EtreCheckPro.app file to the Trash.

EtreCheckPro saves all generated reports automatically under the
Previous reports item in the File menu. This will open a Finder window
showing all previous reports. These can be managed with the Delete
previous report item in the File menu."

THAT paragraph is *NEW*!

I hope that clarifies matters for you.
