That's not what I'm getting at. Regardless of the details of the cloud offerings, migrating from Linux to Apple Silicon would help the MacOS and iOS developer experience, because it'll all (MacOS, iOS, Apple's rack OS) be using their BSD-derived Unix OS under the covers.
Right now Apple's cloud engineers are to some extent helping Linux be a better OS by filing bug reports, creating PRs, etc. That activity, directed toward an Apple Silicon rack OS, would redound to those of us sitting behind MacBooks, typing into the terminal, treating it as a Unix box with nice driver support.
