I think we all are sometimes guilty of reading too much into things. WSL was announced to support developers. Not Administrators. The Windows/Azure division has a strategy for administration. And that is Powershell (also on Linux). They admin strategy is implement Powershell commandlets for Windows and Linux and execute them via Powershell (and things like DSC). WSL however was always announced as a tool for developers to develop stuff. As long as you can run Linux tools and services and finish your dev tasks with it, they are considering it as goal achieved.
