Nobody was defending anything. I just told that I don't remember having any issues with the Linux OOM killer, and guessed a potential reason. I haven't really used any Windows version later than 2000 for anything except gaming, so I don't know how things work there these days. I mostly use macOS and Linux, and I've had far more trouble with pathological memory management behavior in macOS. Basically, macOS lets individual processes allocate and use far more memory than is physically available. When I'm running something with unpredictable memory requirements, I have to babysit the computer and kill the process manually if necessary, or the system may become slow and poorly responsive.
