How long does it take to generate XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/swift/macosx/prebuilt-modules? I waited for 20 minutes and couldn't get CoreFoundation.swiftmodule to generate...

I'll just say Apple is dumb because you cannot even compile C++ on the device itself like you can on Android.
At least Android allows developers to develop apps for free and not a huge yearly cost like Apple requires to even TRY to make a game or other app for their iOS devices.

You may enjoy tbodt's iSH (emulates a x86 Linux PC on an iPad)
You could probably get a C++ interpreter like Cling accepted into App Store (there's already IDEs for C# and Python), but there's no point staying on device when eg glitch.com gives you a free Linux shell

Trying to replicate twitter.com/stroughtonsmit but in Swift, by running a find-and-replace from "x86_64" to "arm64e" on every file I can find in Xcode

Answer: yes, you can very easily compile theoretically-working Mac apps for ARM right now just by editing a few dozen tbd files in the SDK
