I suspect Microsoft have now separated their plan for world domination from worship of the NT kernel.

It does seem so, given it's called WSL and not LSW.

One day they're going to flick the switch and make the Win32 API interface to the Linux kernel. And on that glorious day, I still won't touch it with a bargepole because it'll still have a crappy UI and be full of telemetry.
