From a financial perspective, a 3% market share is so insignificant that companies might not even be aware of what the hell Linux is

Baby steps. Considering that Linux isn't installed by default on PCs you buy from BestBuy/Walmart, 3% is a good number.

Unfortunately, No employee will ever recommend a Linux laptop/PC to a newcomer.

While Linux laptops (Purism/Pop!_OS) are already out there in the market for a few years, people who buy them are already inside the Linux ecosystem.
