From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Because of GPU passthrough
Unless things have changed, graphics card passthrough is tough to use because you need two graphics cards. The one sent to the VM can't be used on the host if you plan on using the guest. For laptops this can be impossible to reconcile, and even for desktops this can be... weird.
Actually, things have changed - you can passthru with just a single GPU now, and for many users, it's actually more stable/reliable than a dual-GPU setup (as you do mention, it can be "weird"). There is a catch however, and that is of course you can't use/switch to your host OS while the guest is running, but that shouldn't be an issue anyways if you're going to be working out of the guest OS. There are scripts available that make this switchover automatic and seamless.

Here's a handy video that illustrated what this looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTWf5D092VY
