ARM is coming from a position of under 1W per core. You can grow a lot from there.
x86 can't progress the same amount because they can't increase power. If anything they're going the opposite direction.
Once you put an ARM core in a server you can increase the power quite significantly and these are starting to become available now. You can already buy this one:
