  Especially since IT departments see Windows as the “budget” option for worker drones who don’t need much other than a web browser and Office. The other side benefit is that Macs are way harder to manage and so IT depts don’t actually bother and you get admin access and told to turn on FileVault instead of the nightmare that is opinionated GPOs. So when it comes to my option of a MacBook Pro or the cheapest functional Dell Latitude bought in bulk I’m gonna suddenly care a whole lot about testing in Safari. Apple set themselves up really well as an escape hatch from overbearing IT, not surprised people with the opportunity take it. Devs get the treatments that was previously reserved only for the C suites.
