does macbook air support aptX

Does the current (2020) MacBook Air support aptX HD? If it does, can I stream it through HomePod? Thank you in advance for the answer.

This is excerpted from a Reddit post: Apple didn't license it, You cannot have APTX HD on any Apple device. Then there was this from 9to5 site: While iOS won't support the standard, macOS officially supports aptX (not to be confused with aptX HD) as a Bluetooth audio codec. However, macOS will likely favor AAC as Apple's apps such as iTunes prefer the codec.
