Every certificate library has to implement its own blocking no matter which platform you run on. Windows provides an API to do this at the system level, which means nothing if a given application vendors their own TLS library.
I bet you have at least one copy of OpenSSL on your Windows system, probably multiple. Using the Windows native APIs is work. OpenSSL just works everywhere.
(Also, "the platform" doesn't technically even provide the cert bundle, depending on exact distro & packages.)
