I think there is a different perspective - MacBooks are great development machines, pretty much everything builds without modification, if you need a true linux environment you can always spin one up with docker. I’d bet you that people running MacOS in VMs leads to people running MacOS on their shiny new MacBook. If you had told me thirty years ago that one day I’d be developing on a Mac I would have laughed, but once I had one I realized developing under Windows was a pain - everything is unnecessarily difficult because Microsoft wants you to develop FOR windows and they want you giving money to all their partners who forever have their hands out, and they make everything else hard. It’s like a pain that never goes away - you can learn to ignore it but at some level it’s always there.
