I think the tipping point was a few years ago. The are simply more Phones/tables/tvs/cars then the have ever been desktop PCs. They tend to be more latency sensitive and resource constrained. Therefor it is unsurprising that more optimization work has been invested in ARM then x86.

Graviton's certainly work out better for every program I have tried on AWS (obviously this is mainly because AWS set the price to ensure they do).

I mean the are complex x86 programs that run just as fast for longer on battery on a M1 then a comparable Dell/Lenovo.
