Windows is an operating system and does not have dependence on specific hardware being present.

Incorrect. Windows Hello uses special hardware.
Right, Windows Hello requires it for facial auth, Windows itself does not. Hello still works, just you have to authenticate with a different method if the hardware isn't present.
How little is your time worth that you spend it making pedantic little correctioms like this?
Bored at work lol
There are definitely webcams that work with Windows Hello, and those that don't.
