You are overthinking it. It is neither a strategy nor keystroke saving (although technically with shift its 4 keystrokes as opposed to 5 for Linux and quite a few saved for Windows). I just typed that without thinking probably because it looks better and reads a bit easier (subjectively).
He is saving 4 keystrokes out of ~400 by typing LNX instead of Linux.
But holding the shift key makes up for it, so seems like a bad strategy
