On Windows (and corporate environment) one reason is that it is easier to manage. Comes with Windows, updates via Windows update and Microsoft provides support (for those with agreements).

Chrome based Edge has nothing to do with Windows update

I don't quite see that I should be using Edge on Mac because Edge on Windows is easier to manage.

Chrome based Edge will make Chrome based Chrome redundant in Windows, imo. I'd hazard a guess that Microsoft sees an opportunity in macOS to spread their influence. Workers using Windows with Edge want the same browser on their Mac.

If you are using Windows and Mac, you might want the same browser on both.
