It’s very clear how developers can decide to limit the targets for their apps. What are you missing? Maybe I can help explain further.

The checkbox does not say it prevents to run it on the M1 but states about the availability on the store, it's called "Make this app available", I can also help you by providing actual screenshots if you want if you don't believe me.

As a developer, if I untick that checkbox. I expect it not to run on mac M1. I don't want users to be able to run it, from store or otherwise.

I unchecked that box because I haven't developed with mac in mind and don't want to provide bad experience.

And?

Do you think a developer who ticks that checkbox is going to be unhappy with this functionality?

I don't know, nobody asked them? Hence why this error message is poorly worded.

Literally nobody but you cares.
