Apple did it since approximately forever for kernel crashes as well. Anything to avoid any agency and shift the blame onto the user. https://support.apple.com/

  Isn't that the message you get if you forcefully power off (long-press power) a hanging mac, instead of a panic where it would reboot automatically after the core dump?

    Yeah, it is. A kernel panic dumps a vague message into the middle of the screen prompting you to reboot, in a bunch of different languages.

      But in recent years, it also reboots quickly enough that you'd have to be sitting there watching to catch it.
