My question was genuine, not just rhetorical. I appreciate the additional context here, especially that Win32 is implemented as a long-lived NT personality. It's indeed a bummer that Microsoft didn't see it as expedient to maintain the others or continue to grow WSL1.

Windows Services for Unix was also longer-lived than I'd realized. Was that just before its time or did it have some other problem?
