I mean you have to run Windows as your host system. Personally I would consider this a major drawback which more than eclipses any convenience gains.

I guess I should have been more verbose in my original comment. Windows is hot garbage, but there hardly exists a good reason for dual booting. Use a Windows VM from Linux if you can, WSL2 from Windows if you must.
Why? It works great. Or is it just personal preference?
Mostly preference. I don't like Windows' approach to telemetry, and intrusive UI patterns.
Which intrusive UI patterns?
Candy Crush ads in the start menu.
Right click. Remove. Done. No more ads.
Why should I have to do that?
