I have to assume the primary use for these VMs is to build iOS applications not Mac apps. For that use case the CPU architecture used to run the build doesn't really matter since the end product is an arm64 iOS app regardless.

Sure, you can use it for testing and building Mac apps, but the number of people doing that is minuscule compared to the number of iOS developers (unfortunately).
