I don't understand what you mean. It is not a requirement necessarily but unless you are a very small flexible startup, most companies provide standard computers with OS standardized and employees don't have the freedom to install whatever they want.I wouldn't call that a requirement. So no, I wouldn't mention that we require a certain OS.

You just explained why it’s ok for a company to require employees to use a particular OS and then said “but (the requirement) is not a requirement which I don’t understand. As a prospective employee I don’t want to make “dealbreaker” demands because realistically almost any concern on my part can be solved by just paying me more money. If, OTOH there are hard requirements by the employer they should be stated (in office work etc)
