The processors aren't the big hurdle, the ecosystem is. There's just too much legacy of x86 for things to suddenly make a switch because the Linux & Windows scenes aren't under an iron grip like MacOS is by Apple, so a unified and industry wide push will never happen - it's inherently a trickle adoption, if at all.

At some point arm will be so efficient, it will easily receive all new releases and be able to easily emulate x86 for all old releases without any penalty. It’s an inevitable future!
