It's very relevant. You suggest I don't know I've never been infected, and postulate that my system could be infected by malware that wouldn't cause abnormal behaviour, such that I wouldn't know it was there.

Your entire reasoning is based on your assumption that such malware even exists for the Mac. Hence my request that you justify that assumption.
