I much prefer Windows to MacOS. The fact it is missing decent tiling is a nonstarter. It's too inflexible for my workflow.
And sure, Windows can be maddeningly inconsistent, but what really destroys the experience is the constant ensh*ttification. I know a lot of people here hate everything about Windows, but for me, it only sucks because Microsoft designs it to suck.
Not only are there ads and (some) first party lockin, I cannot trust they will continue offering updates, paywall feaures, restrict more functionality, or insert stuff like AI to mess up my workflow.
I used to think reliability was just about stability and bugginess, but now I think it is about trust as well.
I use Amethyst on Mac for tiling: https://ianyh.com/amethyst/.
Not sure if that's what you meant though.
Yabai works pretty well even with SIP enabled and there's a new one called AeroSpace that's in the works.

Thanks for the tip, aerospace looks to be exactly what I've been looking for for a long time #^-^#
