The main reason it works well for me is that I don't have to change anything about my workflow, commands like 'docker run' and 'docker compose up' still work, just faster and more efficient.
If Apple's container works the same they might 'sherlock' Docker and Orbstack.

But I didn't understand if they support the same container spec from docker or not: i. e. will a container created with docker run on apple silicon now?

It's still running in a tiny Linux VM. One VM per container if what I've read is right...
It's running on Apple Silicon because it's only available on Apple Silicon. Docker/orbstack/lima/etc are also running on Apple Silicon when your Mac is an Apple Silicon Mac, so I didn't quite get the meaning of that last one...
If you were trying to say it's running natively without a Linux VM though, it's wrong insofar as it's not running on a single shared VM as the other solutions do but it's still using Linux VMs.
