Yeah, the fact that you have to use different software is the main reason people don't switch.

People making an informed choice about linux vs windows are a minority, the majority just don't realize switching is even an option let alone have the technical know-how to go through with it. As long as windows comes pre installed, nothing will touch its hegemony.

This is a very good point, a lot of self proclaimed hardcore gamers can't even handle building a pc or installing an os, even if it's an easy install like linux.
