It's really not. I was forced to do everything on *nix systems in university. I mostly work in C# on Windows in VS today, which is not something a single class in my university was taught in. We run our code on Linux, but I really don't need to interact with it much. We model everything in our stack using Terraform. I do use WSL-2 a bit when I need to, especially when interacting with the AWS Cli or Docker and similar.

It's just a good desktop and dev environment that stays out of my way, has sensible defaults, and doesn't require endless twiddling to be productive in.
