I agree, you've captured much of why I came away from the article feeling a bit 'hmmm'.

Something I read somewhere that I found super interesting is that on Windows, when a process completes, the user often gets a notification or popup alerting them to this, whereas on Linux, it's more normal for there to not be any confirmation messages when a process is finished. I hadn't consciously realised this difference until I read this and reflected on how many times I'd have to double check things when I first started using Linux.
