If you have good idea about omputer Sccience then you need to understand the parent arcchiteccture of x86 and ARm respectively. ARM is based on Reduced Instruction Set Computer architecture or RISC whereas x86 is based IS or Complex Instruction Set Architecture. Now RISC can be very efficient for executing instructions, has lower latency but they need extremely low level integration with the Operating System and the OS you're planning to use, unlike CICS proccessors like x86 which can run on varios platforms far easily. Qualcommay be coming with a very beefy ARM based PU but unless Microsoft and the Software vendors optimize their software exclusively for that specific architecture, you never gonna see full performance and it will take a long time as in Windows Platform, now both Microsoft and Software vendors need to optimize their architecture for three different type of CPUs.
For Apple, it was easy as they are using their tailor made Processor, own OS, and software library which needs to be optimized for a single architecture.

ARM is a different CPU type, as opposed to the current X86/X64 CPUs. The newer Macs with M processors have arm chips as well as most phones.
The advantages of ARM are lower power consumption, but I have doubts about compatibility on Windows.

Your other points are valid, but I'm still waiting for new ARMs to be released. If nothing else they should lower the prices of competition.

The point I was trying to make is these benchmarks are completely standard despite being synthetic. Intel and AMD can optimize for them just as much as Qualcomm.

Theirs a chance, a small one, that these ARM laptops are a leap ahead as the M1 Mac was.
