I switched to Windows from linux for 2 reasons

1) WSL1/2
2) Gaming

I also play overwatch and yeah I don't want to dual boot :D

Overwatch should work on Linux too. But the occasional need for adobe..doesn't.

WSL/git bash were the thing that made me fine to just use Windows. I was dual booting for a while but I don't see the need anymore, I have the command line I need and I don't need to worry about software not supporting the OS, unless it's something Apple-specific like XCode

Yes, still for that I have a VM with OSX but I'm mostly working on web stuff where it does not matter what OS you have I only boot it to test things out in safari because it is the new IE.
