Would this reduce the resource overhead on Windows?

I originally switched to i3wm because it was kind to my resources and I stayed because I discovered the joys of tiling windows.

From the looks of it, it doesn't replace Windows Explorer desktop environment, it just hooks into the windows DWM apis in order to provide automatic tiling capabilities

You can use i3wm with Windows?

[tendencydriven]

No, you cannot. I believe that the person you are replying to is stating the reasons for why they switched (and stayed with) i3 on Linux.
