Why should users pay for developers' poor choices? This is a great way to piss off people who would blame Microsoft. There isn't a great answer to this that satisfies everyone.

Because Linux doesn't maintain stable kernel API/ABIs, which requires either a shim to the more stable driver (a "midlayer") and ongoing development that's unlikely to get mainlined or a shim to a binary blob for th

Modern DACs and ADCs (sigma-delta) get around this entirely by oversampling/upsampling then low pass filtering in the digital domain with a minimal if any analog LPF. This avoids all the issues you describe and with noise shaping the a
