Yeah after reading some other comments (also on reddit) the idea that they push fixes platform specific and linux just defaults to a state with many missing fixes sounds like a reasonable option.

So they supposedly maintain duplicate version of core functions in plateform specific branch and never merge them to master...

That would only be slightly less worse than the sabotaging theory.

Indeed. But it sounds like something _new_ microsoft would do and does not imply that they are still _old_ microsoft with a new hat.
