That's not what it tells you at all. It's like saying because VLC can play MKV files on a mac then MKV's are also natively supported! Just because a default application (if that's what quicktime is) plays something, that doesn't mean the OS natively supports it.

I tried to find some documentation about native format support and the best I could find was this. It hasn't been updated since 2017, but that's about the pace apple move at so I assume it's probably accurate.

Not quite sure what you've taken offence to, my intention was just to make sure the OP was aware that there may be implications about using FLAC if they were entrenched in the apple walled garden, even if it just meant they'd need to download apps that did have FLAC support.
