Looking at this comment: #691 (comment) this won't be addressed soon.

P.S. Since Julie would be in this thread, I'd like to highlight that many of us are still awaiting the ability to include MLKit models directly into the app's bundle, rather than requiring a separate download on each device (Digital Ink). This would greatly enhance user experience and convenience. (and will boost the satisfaction of working with Google MLKit)

+1 I have to use Google MLKit for a project and I'd really like to compile my app natively for simulator on my ARM Mac.
