In fact, the scuttlebutt has always been that very few apps have been so prepared! It makes sense that GVIM has been so compiled, because many developers will need it for further app tweaking, but people I know do not know that many apps may be ready for ARM. One app that is MISSING is GUFW, to help users manage their digital defenses, in needed now.
Well, Synapctic is just a frontend/GUI for APT. As long as it's in the repos it will show up in the list. Synaptic themselves have nothing to do with the packages in the repository. The ARM repos did come a long way since the Raspberry Pi came out in 2012(?). Say what you want, but RPi did help bring ARM to the mainstream.
Hope that helps
