Non VPP App Store apps are not supported in macOS and tvOS devices

Apple App Store apps that are not purchased in ABM (Non VPP apps) fails while deployed to macOS and tvOS devices from MDM. Since, we can install apps directly from App Store of macOS and tvOS devices just like iOS devices, kindly help us understand why the non VPP apps fails when distributed to tvOS and macOS from devices.

This is the expected behaviour at this time. If there are concerns with this please file feedback with impact statements as to why this feature would be useful.

For tvOS I can say it's because we don't expect it to be used in a 1-1 deployment where someone would be available to respond to an install prompt.
