Isn't the answer quite simple? There is no demand.
We have reached the point where shipping 1.2B Smartphone per year is called massive, comparing to 200M PC market where 150M of those are laptop ( Soldered and non Socketed ).
You cant buy a self made ARM PC. But there will be Qualcomm ARM Laptop. And the AWS ARM CPU are based on ARM N1 Design, it is only a matter of time somebody make the same CPU, or System integrator selling CPU made from other ARM CPU vendor such as Fujisu, Ampere, Huawei, Marvell, or possibly Nvidia and others.
I dont see much of a problem in getting ARM access as consumers.
