   And just to add @AidenRHall -> the idea here is that we would also like to 
experiment with more fuzzing ourselves in Airflow. We generally have approach 
that we do not add anything in our repo - even if it is going to be run 
externally by OSSFuzz - so that we can reproduce it locally easily. 
   
   We are starting small and we want to add more fuzzing in Airflow And 
@skypher  was kind enough to propose the PR and adding PR that might be usable 
by OSSFuzz. However, if we are to make a good use of fuzzing and add it in 
various parts of Airflow, our contributors need to have an easy way of 
iterating on it - adding new fuzzing, modifying existing one - and this all 
should be locally runnable. Many of our contributors have Mac ARM devices they 
are developing Airflow on. Most PMC members and committers in fact. So if we 
are serious about fuzzing and about getting people involved in making good use 
of it - we need to make it easy for them to contribute to our fuzzing.
   
   This is the main reason why we also try to use our CI to test it. While 
Python version is not a blocker (we can easily run it in CI only for Python 
3.11+), lack of native ARM wheels is pretty much a blocker - taking into 
account the time it takes to build Atheris and the environment needed for build 
to succeed. 
   
   I hope that clarifies why ARM support is so important for us.
