Fair enough except for your example. ESO does not support M1/M2. It's running on Rosetta. Bethesda officially do not support M2 so obviously they haven't made any effort to make it run efficiently on an M2. How is that Apples

There's way more to it than GUI libraries. That is a native Windows application calling Windows APIs. You can't run that Windows executable on Linux without Wine/Proton. Even a console application (no GUI) depends on operatin

If the vast majority of games were on the JVM, then the vast majority of games would run on Linux or Mac without Proton or Wine, wouldn't they? That is not the case. Minecraft is probably the only major game that runs on the JVM.

No, only a tiny minority of PC games run on the JVM. The vast majority are native and not running on any kind of VM. Even with the Unity engine the games are natively compiled.

No shit. That's my point. You said "games are usually not native". Which games? Not sure what you mean by that. Never mind.

Crossover can run Steam on M1. It uses Wine/Proton/Rosetta and works quite well for many Windows games.

Steam does not run natively on Asahi Linux (no ARM build) You have to use an x86 emulator to run Steam on Asahi. Crossover on MacOS would be faster as it uses Rosetta.

Install Crossover then run Steam in Crossover. Works with M1.

We are talking about the definition of "world model". If you disagree with it then your argument is not technical, it is philosophical in nature. This is like arguing with a religious fundamentalist.

But you are essentially making a philosophical argument about what defines a "world model". It is a disagreement about a subjective interpretation of the term.
