The difference in execution is palpable, like comparing an A student to a C-/D+ slacker. I suspect MS exec politics is the problem however, not their engineers.

I’d argue that it’s an culture problem. A complete architectural transition is fundamentally at odds with what MS stands for wrt a very long term backwards compatibility. This means that their ARM -> X86 translation should not just match Rosetta but actually exceed it by a large margin to maintain their compatibility.
