The performance that makes containers usable currently depends on Rosetta on Linux as well. Removing the support makes them much less usable.
The announcement doesn't actually say they are removing the Rosetta emulation. Rosetta 2 as a complete snapshot of macOS system frameworks is not the same thing as what is now called the virtualisation framework
Generally speaking of Rosetta means Rosetta 2 since Rosetta 1 is deprecated. It is very difficult to say what they are meaning.
The deprecation is mentioned in the context of Rosetta translation environment [1]. Rosetta for Linux uses same wording [2].
For example, Docker at least used to use this same binary translation internally year ago (the same tech as deprecation is mentioned). I don't know how it is today.
