"lazily" is probably the wrong word. For the first release, the approach here is pretty obviously: The minimum changes needed to existing machines to accommodate the M1. That approach makes a lot of sense because it minimizes the time to market. It puts Apple silicon in people's hands as soon as possible. That's important because the sooner that happens, the sooner the software will be updated for AS. Think about it: the alternative was to just make people wait for the redesigns, which will take a year or two more. And the redesigns are coming... judging by all that empty space in that mini, they will be dramatic.
