I am for portability but if you decide to go that route, you need to do a ton of testing on different platforms to make sure it really works. That definitely costs time and effort. There are a lot of ways to do it wrong.

Even setting up your automated tests on multiple platforms can cost a ton of money on CI infra alone. Besides increased server costs some architectures cost a lot more to rent on cloud-CI systems (cough macOS) and setting up the local infra to run tests on-prem can be a huge endeavor and each new platform added has fixed costs. Nevermind your cloud CI randomly dropping support for one of your archs.
