We could run a cross-compiler if needed. There are too many different platforms to cover them all, but if there is a reasonable demand (note that we do have a very small number of users for some platforms), we can try to figure out if we could add it. Regarding musl: support for musl binaries has only been added recently. I did not attempt doing the same check on arm for various reasons, the most important one being that we don't even have the binaries for it. (I could add a check and prevent the default binaries to work, but we could not support the platform out of the box anyway until we add everything that's needed.) Let me know if you think there is still something we should do now.
