A web site is identified by its URL, which contains its domain. Any good HTTPS implementation cross-checks the requested domain against the SANs of the cert, and does so automatically.

There is nothing in a piece of random software obtained from some random source that authoritatively connects it with a particular domain. Without bringing an App Store or other walled garden into the picture, the operating system must evaluate an executable file according to the contents of the file itself. On cold launch, the information in the certificate can be presented to the user, and the certificate issuer can be checked against the O/S trust store, but nothing equivalent to the HTTPS domain check can be done.

DV certs work for the web because of that intrinsic connection between web site and domain. They fail for arbitrary software because of the lack of such a connection. The trustworthiness of code-signing certs comes from the relatively difficult process necessary to obtain them, and not the name attached to them. The identifiable legal entity to which the certificate was issued is more useful to the O/S vendor, as a harder-to-evade ban target, than it is to the end user.
