Rosetta still needed for NTKDaemon!

Well, we've just passed the 5 year anniversary for the release of Apple Silicon and still can't install NTKDaemon without needing Rosetta! Surely this is highly embarrassing by now? There has to be some sort of timeline for shifting this ridiculous roadblock? For those of us who also use our Macs for software development as well and deliberately can't have Rosetta installed, the customer service can only be described as appalling - we're just getting gaslight by NI. Beyond advising anyone I can not to buy NI gear until this is fixed, there's nothing more I can do! If there's anyone at NI who actually cares it would be good to hear what's happening (if anything)…

First, it’s not running all the time. It’s a binary translation service activated when Intel code is detected. And second, it will be absent on Macs starting from late 2027. NI is well aware of this (I hope).

Also now that Absynth 6 is out to replace Absynth 5, I can't think of any other products by NI that require Rosetta apart from stuff that is really old and probably not even installable like Spectral delay.
