Am I missing something, or is the
Rancher.Desktop-1.8.1.aarch64.dmg
an intel x86_64 binary and not an aarch64/apple silicon binary? From the 1.8.1 release page both the Rancher.Desktop-1.8.1-mac.aarch64.zip download and Rancher.Desktop-1.8.1.aarch64.dmg download result in an application running as ‘intel’ x86_64 and not aarch64.

No this is correct (see also https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/1416#issuecomment-1028207957). All performance-relevant pieces are native arm64 code though

I downloaded the Apple Silicon version today, and the resulting app also appears to be an Intel app:
