I work with ARM daily (automotive) and I'm skeptical of that 
assumption. Sure Apple is moving over, but that's a more 
centralised and controlled ecosystem. It won't be as easy with 
Windows or GNU+Linux.

Why would the developers put in all that effort if it turns out 
to be another "Year of the Linux desktop" or "Rust is superior 
and everyone will be using it"?It would be safer and less of a 
hassle to react to market conditions than to predict and preempt 
them.

Let the chips fall where they may, and work based on that. It's 
too early yet.
