VMs can't boot with Network Mode set to Bridged on Apple M5 Pro machines

This is a standard way to form bridges in WiFi networks and does not require any ARP proxying. In practise this requires certain OS/driver/firmware/chipset combinations to work though.
Everything that person said was factually correct. They weren’t wrong, they simply didn’t have the whole picture.
The funny part, to me, is that it all could have been avoided by simply saying something to the effect of “the APIs they call in UTM are Apple’s and there are no hacks or workarounds they can do at the UTM level. Any differences between the hardware are just that.”
The actual thread was wildly inefficient but if it hadn’t gone that way no one would have learned anything, including us!

Shoes are one of those things where you get what you pay for.
Unfortunately, not everyone has access to quality shoes, either for reasons of money or geography.
I was given a pair of really nice shoes once. They've lasted me almost 20 years because I live in a large city where I can stop at a shoe shine stand every few weeks, and also have them re-soled as they wear.
Most people buy plastic junk from Amazon because they don't know better.

Oh wow, it has it's own wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_theory
That single paragraph could win it.
Well ... maybe I'm biased ...
- 30 years ago, you couldn't buy sports shoes (sneakers, runners, tennis shoes, court boots, whatever) that have only a foam midsole, no hard rubber outsole of any kind. A very light, foamy type of running shoe called a "race flat" did exist, but you had to go to a specialist store to find that. Without an outsole, EVA foam wears down fast. Stay away from these shoes unless you're looking to use them as bedroom slippers; always look for an outsole. If the shoe is not for a specific sport, look for trail runners, which have more outsole coverage on the bottom, often an uninterrupted one piece outsole.
- Most shoes today that look like they have a thick sole are actually hollow. If you peel off the layers of insoles, you see that the outsole is "ice cube tray" shell with voids. When the thin bottom of this tray wears through, they leak water. It just has to wear through in one spot, like the very back of the heel, and it's done as far as resisting water, and when it wears some more, rock can actually push up into the voids. All this can happen well under a year. I distinctly remember growing up with shoes that were solid, heel to toe.
