Because, in my opinion, programming on Windows is such a massive pain in the ass to do simple things such as trying to set up SSH keys in a meaningful way.
I know WSL2 exists but that eats 30GB of RAM (somehow) and just doesn't work for well for me and if I see one more error stating I need admin permissions to delete node_modules or vendor I'm going to scream.
With Linux all these pain points just don't exist and with Docker everything just becomes a breeze.
I have a lot of less RAM on my Windows PC with the WSL2 setup however, so far I haven't got any issues with it. Usually Chromium "eats" the memory and cause issues.
I agree with @rvxlab on the resources point here, WSL2 does not work well on machines with low hardware resources. Windows in general does not like it :D

It eats 8GB of RAM for my 16GB laptop though.
Also, it seems that it's known issue, and RAM hogging can be somehow turned off.
I have the issue it eats the 8GB for my 8GB RAM laptop :D
