Windows does actually have a Windows 11 version of ARM. The Thinkpad X13s for example does use it. It doesn't seem to be widely available though, maybe because it's experimental.
Yes it does but Microsoft doesn't seem to be licensing it to anyone. You can't buy licenses and last time I checked only the Surface got it, I believe they're trying to hold it from themselfs in order to push the Surface as the only option if you want a very light / portable Window ARM computer.
They do. No one really wants it. More than the Surface is getting it.
