This is an interesting question, since it's actually the underlying strategy of Microsoft (I don't imply it's a wrong thing).

My personal motivation is that Linux power users will miss the control, or at least, customizability, of the operating system, which is something Linux does, and Windows doesn't (as they have different targets).

Also, not to be underestimated, security (although for me it's only a very small factor).

WSL2 doesn't support hardware perf counters, which means `perf` and `rr` won't work.
