Honestly, as weird as cygwin can be, I question the judgement of relying on Linux's chief competitor to keep a mock linux kernel interface as well supported as the OS they really care about. Are you really sure that environment will be working in Windows 11... windows 12? etc?

This just seems like a really bad idea compared to simply running a VM and sharing a filesystem using networking or other means... It's not like a modern machine, even a shitty netbook nowadays, can't handle a virtualbox instance, or localhost networking.
