Not the poster but in brief using wine for your workflow implies that between version n and n+1 something may stop working potentially with a workaround or potentially forever. It's also styled funny compared to native apps.

Nothing wrong with it, I just think it's too much stuff to have on my system for a single program. And it introduces new kinds of vulnerabilities that I don't care for.
