Both Windows and macOS have the capability to run AMD64 programs on ARM64. In light of that, the installer could fallback to AMD64 binaries if no ARM64 binaries are available.

On macOS, there are sysctls for finding our what type of the binaries the system natively supports.

On Windows 11, GetMachineTypeAttributes look interesting.
