But if I have to have a full Windows installation that I need to keep up to date, with the full setup of drivers and other software that I need to run games, what advantage does an average person (not software dev/IT enthusiast) have from running a second OS for the things that do work on both OSes?
It's kinda like saying "This racing kit car is amazingly fast, you can tinker on it and reconfigure it, and for everything that you can't do in the kit car, you can just keep a family minivan around".
That's nice for a racing/car enthusiast. But most people just want one car to do all they need.
I mean, it is a thing you can do if Linux is something you want to switch to, but just have these outliers. I'm not going to tell you why you should switch, I know neither if that's something you want or if that's something that will benefit you, that's for you to decide.
All I'm saying is these are a couple of ways to deal with that, that's all.
