Doesn't WSL 2 essentially run Linux in a VM? It's fine when things are in one OS or the other, but gets weird when it crosses over.

Yes it is in a VM but beautifully handled.Your C drive is mounted and slower than a real linux because it is NTFS but works much better than those cygwin, or git bash tools.
