Ignoring one smaller market while gleefully supporting another, Epic Games have announced they're getting Fortnite along with Epic Online Services Anti-Cheat on Windows Arm.
If that’s the case they should not say stuff like “oh we would totally support Linux if the Steam Deck would have sold 10 million copies, the userbase is just too small now” but then proceed to support ARM which has a much smaller userbase still while there’s not even a guarantee it will outgrow Linux in the near future. Just quit the BS and say you’ll never want to support Linux.
I really haven’t been paying attention on the consumer side, are there a ton of systems in the works or out for ARM on windows?
Everything I see due to my line of work is business class SKU’s they are not cheap and not game friendly. 😬
Functionally, it works great and sluses less power. Issue is it can’t be backwards compatible with any software from a traditional processor. So the last 3 decades worth of programs you may have won’t run on an arm chip.

Are we even able to successfully add an eGPU on those ARM laptops using a Linux distro?

Sorry, I just meant on the home/consumer market instead of business. I’ve been rocking a Lenovo T14s Gen 6 ARM since it debuted. 😄
