That is incorrect. They are written for both the OS and the "bare metal." If that were true (that the only thing that counts is the OS), then any Windows 11 program would be just as functional and give the same performance on Windows on ARM as it would on Windows on x86. The same with MacOS and Linux. There also would be no reason for companies like Microsoft and Apple to make translation layers for programs written for x86 for their OS's to work on ARM. There also would be no reason to develop native ARM apps for those OS's, and the same is true of Linux.
