Sure, but the bottom line is can you compile something for ARM64 and have it work on it or not? Since people keep bringing it up I assume the answer is no.

And I suppose that's entirely typical, nothing says Apple as much as as making something as custom and incompatible as possible for literally no reason except ecosystem locking.
