why is that? performance?

Hyper-V and VMWare don't work well together. If your machine is running on VMWare (as do our development workstations), then you won't be able to use Hyper-V. This already prevents us from using Docker on the dev workstations themselves (which are Win10).
VMs give near-native performance, and it's not like WSL1 was particularly fast.
WSL1 was notably slow, because the windows file system stack is much slower on metadata than Linux.
The last time I checked virtualbox and hyper v can't run at the sametime.
VirtualBox 6.0 should support it. Still considered an experimental feature though.
