It's because application on recent versions of MacOS cannot access files in some directories without being granted permission explicitly, a permission model similar to what iOS and Android.

You can grant them additional permission using System Preferences, see https://osxdaily.com/2018/10/09/fix-operation-not-permitted-terminal-error-macos/ for example. All applications on recent version of MacOS behaves like this and this is not a bug in Python.
