This may be a foolish question, but, is does the computer on which you 
are seeing this have an intel CPU or an Apple Silicon CPU?

Computers with Apple Silicon CPUs can run software compiled for intel 
CPUs, but require the installation of Apple's Rosetta 2 software to do 
so. Details at <https://support.apple.com/en-us/102527#needsrosetta>. 
GnuCash 5.9 also has a version compiled for Apple Silicon, which does 
not require Rosetta 2. That is what I use on my Mac, which has an Apple 
Silicon CPU.

But if the computer you are using has an intel CPU, then this does not 
apply, and I can't shed light on what you see.
