In your own way, you are correct, but so are people who have the completely opposite experience. In our industry (biotech manufacturing) we rely Windows for everything. All the apps we use are Windows only. For us, there is no "parity across all platforms".

Yeah it's the same in my industry for some parts of it as well.

But that doesn't mean it works. It's literally only there because it is entrenched. A lot of the time it doesn't work and has an extremely large support cost.

Sure, that is your view. But that isn't the only viewpoint. We don't seem to have any major issues with our systems, but I'm not an IT expert.

It's not really just my view. You might be a lucky outlier. I get to sit on a lot of calls with tens of large and small organisations who have serious troubles on a daily basis. I've seen some real horrors out there. Independently everyone just thinks this is the status quo.

Okay, we just have a disagreement. Its no big deal. I appreciate your perspective.
