I guess it depends on your definition of "PC".

I always thought, by definition, it had to be intel 8088 compatible to be a PC.

By whose definition? The term “personal computer” existed for several years before the IBM 5150.

Common definition. And branding. Nobody calls a Mac a PC.

Plenty call a raspberry pi that, however.

By that definition, unsurprisingly, no ARM pcs will ever exist.
