Could you explain what you mean in your first paragraph? In what sense does Windows ship with Linux?

OP is talking about WSL.

I've seen some technical documentation, such as readmes for source code, that assumes the user is on a Windows laptop running WSL. At this point in time if I see anything mentioning Ubuntu I just assume it's written with WSL/Azure in mind.
