Huh? Microsoft 'forbids' a lot of apps from being installed on any windows OS.

macOS exclusive apps, linux exclusive apps, FreeBSD exclusive apps, z/OS exclusive apps, etc..

Do they? The last time I checked news about Windows they were making big efforts to make Linux apps run[1].

And considering the state of the art of Linux GPU Drivers, maybe using Windows will be the only feasible way to actually run Linux apps.

Yes, I gave several examples. Last time I checked there were no promises that all linux apps will be compatible, only some select portion.
