What does "modern" in "modern MacOS" mean? Of course a 1984 or so Mac wouldn't be able to use Unicode, but this practice goes way, way back. Also, it's not exactly Normalization Form D (NFD). It's definitely NFD for many if not most parts of Unicode, but not everywhere. Please see e.g. https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/qa/qa1173/_index.html for more details. Regards, Martin.
