Cool. I might have even read that at some point in the process and lacked enough understanding of the system to know what it meant. I found the process of getting WSL installed quite confusing, so maybe I was distracted. But, reading it even now, it doesn't jump out at me that using a Windows app to mess with Linux files would be disastrous (it was not disastrous for me, but had the files been important, it would have been, as they disappeared). It sounds like it's a thing that just wouldn't work;, e.g. Windows apps wouldn't see them at all, rather than it would potentially destroy your Linux installation, which is what this blog post indicates can happen.
