macOS keeps disabling accesility settings of app

macOS kept disabling the accessibility settings of Aerospace, making it close to impossible to start, requiring 8-20 attempts of re-enabling it in the Accessibility settings.

To solve this, I reset the Accessibility database with:

$ tccutil reset Accessibility

The only caveat is that after doing this, you must re-enable all apps that you want to do special things on your desktop, like OBS studio and window managers such as Aerospace. Apart from that, it's a safe operation to do and doesn't require a restart.
