FreeBSD has been providing binary packages for aarch64 for quite some time - this doesn't happen only for Tier1; I think even mips64 still gets them.

The difference is that binary packages for Tier-2 and lower are on a best-effort basis, and might be more or less out of date depending on the available package build hardware. For arm64 we now have multiple high-end arm64 servers and can guarantee packages will be built in a timely fashion for all supported branches.
