> I agree with everything you've said, but to add to that: there are these weird inflection points with both platforms.
Spot on.. and I do like both platforms with a slight favour for Linux because licensing can be a hassle (unless MS still do those special Enterprise deals and you have one) and you can kind of get around the messy Linux things and it's generally easier to work with unknowns/new things in Linux (as the MS world abstracts too much).
It's good that we have the options and any adult Developer/Systems Admin would recognise that and take advantage of it.
