It's hard to imagine even if Linux distros fix their glaring lack of standardization, bring about sane package management systems and manage to create bearable user experiences. They could create a "Microsoft Linux" distro, that would probably be much less effort than to maintain Windows & Windows Server. If every PC would run on the Linux kernel, hardware vendors would support it. For Edge I think it's just to be able to data mine more people whatever their platform of choice is.
