    WINE requires x86 translation on ARM which isn't present by default..

    Wine doesn't work on ARM by default, and the easiest solution that I'm aware of is ExaGear, which still doesn't exactly rule out Wine as an alternative to ExaGear, but it does complicate the situation with Wine and ExaGear being alternatives to each other.
