This is classic of the all or nothing attitude that anti-Apple and anti-Mac people have. Unless Apple does some Herculean task that shows they're worthy, they're shit.

Homebrew does have a policy of not having downstream patches, so that source trees upstream have to have the Apple Silicon fixes.

That makes the process much more complex.

Why should they do that? How is it in their responsibility?

They haven’t impacted homebrew users negatively at all.
