Vertical integration of the OS and kernel means that users can use the UI to respond to running out of memory where Linux just kills using heuristics.
I've heard of other things but don't know enough to verify them.

While it can behave reasonably on Windows, OOM is still the one thing that that can still sometimes bring down every OS to an unusable state, including Windows. But barring that, best of luck trying to bring down the GUI on Windows. Whereas with Linux, you always gotta be ready to drop out of your GUI and into a terminal to rescue stuff.
