So this is Darwin/BSD Subsystem for Linux 2.

WSL1 was so cool, WSL2 made it boring and isolated.

WSL 1 is long gone for all practical purposes, yet it still dominates conversations.

Also everyone on FOSS gets it wrong, WSL wasn't a subsystem like classical Windows NT ones.

It was based on Drawbridge research using picoprocesses, a new approach for library OSes.
