"Unix-y" is a paradigm or design philosophy, not an operating system. You can write unixy things for any OS. That's what the parent is talking about, not an operating system. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_philosophy

I think what would make things clear for me is if there was an example of how Python did something like a "no" for MS Windows support.

That is, outside of those places where MS Windows might (to the exasperation of Dave Cutler) be considered Unix-y.
