Yes but they also use a custom linux kernel to achieve better performance than plain vz. I'm not technical enough to tell if it's bs, but it boots subsecond
I don't think they use Virtualization for most launches now
I think you are right, I’m not sure that they actually use it for stuff that doesn’t require Rosetta (arm64 stuff)
