Having run Asahi Linux on an M1, it's obvious that a A and M chips were purpose built/designed together for the software Apple creates.
I have a 2018 MBP that dual boots to Windows. Everything from the color of the screen to the CPU performance is totally unrefined in Bootcamp on Windows compared to the macOS side. Same hardware. A lot of it comes down to how much effort is put into making the hardware and software work efficiently and well together.
