I don't know what you are talking about, I'm a back end engineer, and every company I've worked for during the last 12 years gives out MacBook pros to all devs. Even the game company that used C# and Mono gave out MacBooks (and dual booted them, which of course you can't do any more; I never bothered with Windows since our servers were written in Scala).
Not all teams run tons of containers on personal computers. All our servers are running on AWS. I rarely ssh into anything.
I like the fact that OS X is based on UNIX, and not some half-assed bullshit bolted onto Windows. I still have bad memories of trying to use Cygwin 15 years ago. Apparently WSL is an improvement, but I don't care.
Mac runs all the software I need, and it has real UNIX shells.
