So yeah, I think cleaning up and modernizing all this should be in- scope for the Change, thanks for highlighting it.
The arm.fp.o site and the docs page you used are both, I think, older things that date from before we really supported aarch64 much at all, and they clearly haven't been updated. The "current" approach is not great either, though. If you just go in through the front door of the docs page you'd go to "User Documentation" for "Fedora Linux 35", which takes you here: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/f35/
from where I guess you'd go to https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/f35/install-guide/Downloading_Fe... , which has an "ARM images" section which points you to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM . That page then points you to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Installation , which does at least cover aarch64, but seems to give armhfp equal or higher prominence.
It would be great if we can get a doc person to take a look at all these pages referenced above and try to streamline them, modernize them, and get them all singing from the same hymn sheet, I guess.

This is already in motion as part of the work being done by the design team on the website, it's unrelated to this change and has been in motion for some time. All the arm/alt pages are going away and all arches for each artifact will just be on the edition/spin/lab pages.
