I agree there are plenty of reasons some people may still want Windows. I think we all know this, and it doesn't need to be stated every time. However, there are also reasons to switch from Windows to Linux that are better. I just switched GPUS (AMD) today and literally just plugged it in and it's ready to go. Package managers are also hugely more convenient than the Windows method of each application managing its own updates.
Sure, if you need Windows then you need Windows. Most people don't.
