If you have a machine without an ActiveState ActiveTCL installed, please give it a try. It appears to work on my machine with Sigil just fine.
I only have the one computer, which already has ActiveTcl 8.6.9 installed, but I am happy to test your 8.6.12 installer on top of 8.6.9.

I downloaded TclTk_8.6.12.dmg from GitHub Sigil 1.8.0 Release page and copied it to Desktop.

I opened the installer, agreed to license terms, clicked Install, only to get:

"This package is incompatible with this version of macOS. The package is trying to install content to the system volume. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."

I am running Catalina 10.15.7.

Is this happening because I already have 8.6.9 installed? (I'm kinda nervous about uninstalling 8.6.9 since everything is currently working.)

ETA: Not sure if this adds any other useful information, but I launched ActiveState's ActiveTcl 8.6.9.8609.2 installer to see what would happen. The first pop-up window I get says: "This package will run a program to determine if the software can be installed". When I click Continue, a second pop-up says: "An existing installation has been found on your system. Another non-system installation of Tcl exists on this system in /Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework. Please consider uninstalling it before proceeding with the current installation." I stopped there.
