Very often; every ruby/node/etc library that has at least one dependency that needs compilation ("native-extensions") can now run on Windows 10 without issues.

Huh? If it was compiling the native extension, then it would work in cygwin also?
Just as an exercise; try to compile latest Node on cygwin and you will be welcomed by a ton of errors. Then try to compile it on linux subsystem (no issues arise)
