They use that excuse but it doesn't explain the fact that they had alternatives like "the Windows Linux Subsystem" or "the Windows Rust library"...

  Even "Rust Library for Windows" (or why not just "Rust Windows API Library") would be more clear.

    I think the legal issue was that you don't want to start with a trademark name since it suggests endorsement/support from that party.

      Doesn't "Rust for Windows" start with a trademark name?

        Yeah I don't know how they got away with that!
