You call it opening up to Windows, I call it the final word on the question of a proper Windows port. Once WSL is established as the one way to use a piece of software on Windows it stay in the half-world of WSL forever. Perhaps WSL is a perfect tie in terms of user migration: for every person who decides that WSL is their most convenient way of using Linux there might be another who decides that if they are spending so much time in WSL anyways should better try shipping the surrounding Windows. And everybody wins, even pure Linux users who will over time use more software that isn't developed with the overhead of Windows port ifdefs.
