I get the desire to be pedantic, but does anyone at all train DL models on Windows? (barring toy projects for fun and perhaps debugging) The same can be said about num_workers > 0. You _have to_ fork worker threads unless you train something super tiny like MNIST and you load the whole dataset on GPU.

Yes. My last job was at a financial shop that was all Windows. They were doing ML with Python on Windows. Azure has boxes available for this.
