"WSL is a supplemental feature that runs a Linux image in a near-native environment on Windows, allowing for functionality like command line tools from Linux without the over-head of a virtual machine."
But since WSL 2 it does use a VM. According to wikipedia:
"a real Linux kernel,[4] through a subset of Hyper-V features." "with a Linux kernel running in a lightweight virtual machine environment."

It's like saying a politician in the UK is a "senator" and expecting people think you are an authority on the subject.

The IoM isn't in the UK and nor does it have MPs. Probably just semantics but I have to point that out.
