There is very low demand for ARM from Microsoft customers, ARM support exists for when and if such demand materialises.

That doesn't mean Microsoft shouldn't be pro active
That reminds me of an interview with steve jobs, the mass doesn't necessarily know any better, the role of microsoft, apple and other big companies is to show people the impossible is possible
Speed, efficiency, fanless design without perf penalty, are a possibility, M1 is showing that to people
at this point the ecosystem should have been full of ARM apps and ported programs already
Apple uses emulation only just as a transition mechanism, not to depend on it
This is a concerning move from Microsoft to be honest
