I don’t think that the situations are comparable. ARM/x86 and UI are quite different.

  I don't think the time lag between the first release of Windows on ARM in 2012 and finally gaining the ability to (badly) run x86 programs a decade later is comparable. >I’d have only Slack open, and switching between channels would still take almost three seconds (yes, I timed it on my phone). Spotify, also with nothing in the background, would take 11 seconds to open, then be frozen for another four seconds before I could finally press play. When I typed in Chrome, I often saw significant lag, which led to all kinds of typos (because my words weren’t coming out until well after I’d written them). I’d try to watch YouTube videos, and the video would freeze while the audio continued. I’d use the Surface Pen to annotate a PDF, and my strokes would either be frustratingly late or not show up at all. I’d try to open Lightroom, and it would freeze multiple times and then crash. It quickly became clear that I should try to stick to apps that were running natively on Arm. https://www.theverge.com/23421326/microsoft-surface-pro-9-arm-qualcomm-sq3-review https://www.theverge.com/23421326/microsoft-surface-pro-9-ar...
