The only downside of Linux is that it isn’t supported by some proprietary software people might need.
If you already use open source software, what’s the point in running Windows?
That its a familiar operating system that people know how to use and dont need to learn how to install, and doesn’t come with new challenges to figure out or the occasional issue they won’t know how to resolve
For those of us who have been using linux for ages and had the technical ability to make the switch its easy to forget how daunting that can be for an average end user who just wants their computer to work when they need it to and ignore any of the finer details
I think there’s value in speaking to folks who might have an interest in Foss but are intimidated to take the leap to linux outright, and remind folks they can always try new programs within the familiar environment of their existing os :)
