Default planner does not use macOS planner defaults when installing on macOS #891

Hi,

Thanks, I love your product! It makes it so much easier to get started on Nix!

When using the default planner with

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install

on macOS, the planner defaults to encrypting the volume Nix Store, preventing it from simply being managed (i.e. encrypted) by FileVault (and by extension, other admin platforms like Sophos Endpoints). In contrast, the macOS planner with

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install macos

defaults to not encrypt the Nix Store volume (and FileVault, if activated, just encrypts it automatically).

Suggestion: The default planner on macOS should reflect the macOS planner for consistency and a more sensible default.
