Does that essentially mean each non-native app is doubled in disk use? Maybe not doubled but requires more space to be sure.

Yes... you can see the cache in /var/db/oah/

Though only the actual binary size that gets doubled. For large apps it’s usually not the binary that’s taking up most of the space.

Yes.
