We're already at the point where Windows programs sometimes run better on Linux with a compatibility layer (WINE/Proton) than they do natively. The stuff that doesn't run is mostly games ladened with kernel-level DRM that Linux (rightfully) can't emulate.

Linux even runs old Windows programs better than Windows itself, and long-term compatibility is supposed to be one of Windows' biggest selling points.

We're already on 16, we just spell the Windows part differently. We spell it "suse leap"
