When will Adobe Acrobat run natively on Copilot+ PCs? (Not emulation, but native.)

I understand that for Copilot+ PCs Adobe Acrobat only runs via the 32 bit version, but that is far from ideal, runs slow, etc.  Does anyone know when they will actually release a native version that will run on Copilot+ PCs?  I honestly don't understand why they don't release an ARM native version.  Is it that difficult for such a huge company to develop the native version?

@YudaMan While the development of a native version might seem like a logical step, the complexities involved in porting such a large application mean it's not a trivial undertaking, and the timeline remains uncertain. Keep an eye on official announcements from Adobe for any updates regarding native ARM support for Acrobat.
