> Microsoft has embraced Linux and open source in general to the extent that it helps them expand into larger markets.

Yeah. Basically they're smarter this time and found a way to remove the reason to install a Linux Distro on any desktop by just 'extending' WSL2 and adding optimized NVIDIA drivers that are designed only for WSL2.

Which means Windows is the best Linux distro then. Why bother with the Linux Desktop since that has failed anyway?

Yep. The saving grace is they don't have a need to reach the third stage and extinguish anything; their focus is on developers and server/cloud, they likely don't feel intimidated by "desktop Linux".
