Even with lots of RAM, GPU, and fast disks, you probably don’t want it

Based on everything described, it sounds more like a lack of support and optimization rather than a fundamental flaw in arm

Yes. I may be biased but the Arm architecture itself is fine and pretty performant on modern SoCs. Once the system vendors actually manage to ship something without a broken PCIe bus is happily daily drive it.

Hell if I could reliably get EL2 I'd even spring for one of the Snapdragon laptops.

I've used ARM Windows 11 on a MacBook in virtualization and it seems fine to me. Even runs x86 games with decent performance.

"Macromedia Flash support"?!? is this article from the past?

It does mention that those posts were from 2015. Though that still would have been about a decade after Adobe took over.

ETA: Clicking on the post they are referencing, the original author called it Adobe Flash, so not sure why it was changed for this article.
