It occurs in many other ways, not just on a IV chord, for example on the tonic in several Jobim tunes like Wave and Triste. Other widely used parallel minor chords are the bIII and the bVI. Also I don’t see any correlation between a IVm7 and a VIIo chord. | |

IMO it acts not so much as a burrowed chord from the parallel minor, but as a neat way of bringing in some tension in form of notes from the strongly dominant ⅶ⁰ chord, without the dissonance of an actual diminished chord. | |
