Safety. I always use my dad as the perfect metric for this, because he fits the elderly tech stereotype perfectly. I can give him Windows or OSX and he'll usually butcher them into a mess. Their Mac is an absolute mess of toolbars and bloatware, whereas the Windows machine has zero issues after several years.
Speed. Windows always used to have issues with installs getting slow over time. I've had the same base installation of Windows 10 on my Surface Book and it's as fast as it was the day I bought it, despite several hundred gig sitting on the hard drive, numerous VM's, and several IDE's.
Stability. My Surface Book hasn't crashed in years, and my other Windows 10 machines have crashed so infrequently that I forgot what a BSOD looked like nowadays.
Cleaner UI. I think toolbars are still a bit of a mess on Windows 10, but they dud a good job to get away from the mess that was Windows 8, and I'm yet to meet someone that struggles with Windows in the same way they struggle with other OS's.
These aren't headline features, but they're the key points where Windows improves and where OSX seems to struggle. I still love the OSX UI, but I fear that we're not far away from things becoming more iOS friendly on the desktop, and parts of that fantastic UI being torn down.
