I guess I'd have no issue with Arm chips if the developer experience is pretty seamless, considering we deal with numerous languages and frameworks, Docker images, etc and deploy to X86 "cloud" servers. We're already struggling to deal with years of legacy problems while also implementing endless new features. I hate to say it, but I'm currently building ad-hoc production "patches" of images on my local machine and just pushing them straight to running prod servers without any sort of testing or CI/CD. It's a mess.
And the last thing I need is to worry about a bunch of build incompatibilities between architectures as I move from dev and prod environments. I remember the many crazy bugs we'd find just from developing on Windows and deploying to Linux (new lines, unicode incompatibilities, filesystem and path differences, etc).
