Hi Stephan, looking around for a way to create universal binaries for arm64/x86_64 outside of XCode I've stumbled onto this project here: https://github.com/tpoechtrager/osxcross If it works the way the Readme makes it sound, it should be fairly simple to create a universal binary in the existing LyX build environment. I'll try to find some time to play around with it a little over the next few days!
I only had to make the tiniest change in LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh to get it to run on Big Sur (macos SDK version 10.x vs. 11.x). I attached a patch for it.
