Porting photoshop to iOS/ARM could also in part be motivated by a known or perceived Apple transition from Intel to their own ARM chips.

This sounds most likely to me. Port to IOS on ARM coupled with the rumors of IOS APIs being added to MacOS. Sounds like a first step to ARM migration overall.

It’s not a rumor. Apple announced they were doing just that at WWDC and they showed two or three apps ported from iOS to the next release of MacOS.

Guiding all the big Apps developer that Apple known are slow to move to new platform before they announce the switch. May be ARM Mac is really coming.

I know a lot of people really don’t like the idea of macOS on ARM, but I think it could be really valuable for the PC market as as a whole. Intel could use more competition. And a transition towards a less closed architecture would be good for computing in general IMO.
