If something is not developed for the Mac, the it will not appear on there. Gog does not develop the software, just sells what is available. Consider getting a pc with windows of Linux on, or dual booting to one of those.

Oh, and there is Wine you could use:

That's not quite true; there are quite a few Mac games that are on Steam but are not sold here even though the Windows version is. However, yeah, it's still not GOG's decision.

The idea of getting old Ambrosia games here is good, though. I got burned by Ambrosia because of the DRM. Turns out the registration code system they used has expiration dates, so even though I have legit codes they don't work, and I can't get new ones since they shut down. A couple are on GOG (Darwinia, Aquaria).

Also you don't need the Marathon games here, they're all free (legally). Use Aleph One, it's improved over the originals.

Those should probably, if not already, be added to the “games which treat gog gamers as second class citizens” as there should be parity between the stores, though often there isn’t.
