And Linux is not some vision of perfection either, there are still warts around the quality and polish of userspace applications compared to Windows, so meeting the incredibly high bar of "throw out your entire method of thinking for this" is nearly impossible.
You've just perfectly summed up why "the year of the Linux Desktop" has been coming up for nearly 2 decades now.

Who would have to say it for you to suddenly accept that Linux desktops are awesome and have been for 20 years. Would you accept it if Steve Balmer said it? Gates? You wouldn't even then because this is a sports team to you.
