You may be right about that (though I think you'd get some pushback from members of the WSL team, especially since you can bring bring own distro to your WSL instance.)

Given today's cloud connected world (where Macs, PCs, and VMs need to integrate on a daily basis), it seems overly silly (to me) to be overly pedantic about such things.

From a practical standpoint, the observed results remain the same. If we're going to help people with the problems they see, I think we should learn as much as we can about the tools they use.

That's my take; you're perfectly free to disagree.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
