Proposal
I reported this issue on slack and hence also suggesting a solution.

It is a small copy change, in en and es,

     desktop: {
         label: 'MacOS', //  Had put earlier: label: 'MacOS Desktop',. Changed based on the comment below.
     },

Not sure if we need to explicitly add any content for Windows not supported.

Do we need to say "MacOS Desktop" Given that there's only one MacOS, it may be simpler to just say "MacOS"
