I agree that it's good.

I dunno. Familiarity? I mainly use Windows because it's what I've used for 23 years, even though I have a dedicated SSD to Linux. Maybe for many people, it's not worth unlearning decades of muscle memory and re-learning PS just so they can get object-oriented shell scripting.
