Any plans for ARM-on-Windows-Version for Archicad/BIMCloud?

Now that ARM laptops are officially available: when will there be an ARM version for Archicad or BIMCloud?

With the Mac, transitioning to Apple Silicon was mandatory, and software developers had to get on board or be left behind. With Windows, I suspect there'll be a bit of wait-and-watch to see (1) how well it works, and (2) how popular it gets. I could be completely wrong, of course, but with GS already maintaining two versions for macOS, they may not be keen on doing the same (at the current time) for Windows as well.

Could we get proper support for multithreading on x86 cpu architecture first?
