As the other replies, I also agree with you, I've been a bit upset by Canonical for their support to Microsoft in making WSL, I'm not sure Linux has anything to gain from the thing, if not a bad advertising due to the suboptimal experience, but also it is a Linux system that has to exist under the government of microsoft which is a bit scary for me, but yeah I agree with you, I also see them working together for WSL, and at some point I see M$ buying Canonical

I suspect something similar. They have a good partnership. While we're dreaming, I'd love to see a version of Windows with a Linux kernel. They could do what they did with Edge, replace the core with something better.

Eh, word on the street NT is expertly engineered. It's all the compatibility layers and crud that gives Windows it's bad name.

Link or two to get me started?

I don't want to generate unwanted interest or drama for specific people by pasting links to mailing lists.

You can Google for "microsoft (buy|acquire) canonical" and find points on why it's very likely.
