RISCV is also viable to create hardware and software to do what people need.

The software just doesn't exist yet.

Maybe it is, maybe it isn't... But we have definitive proof ARM is, in the form of actual consumer systems on the market.

ARM has been in consumer systems since Android.

We also have proof that ARM sucks for gaming and has many compatibility issues running X86 programs.

Is ARM more mature than RISCV? Yes definitely. But just like RISCV ARM is also not a replacement for X86. Especially when running games or professional proprietary garbage software X86 is still the way to go.
