Running Windows applications on a Linux kernel doesn't involve any GPL nightmares, what makes you think this?

MS already has a Windows subsystem for Linux (they are using it in the MSSQL Linux port).




Changing Windows to use the Linux kernel would require integrating the Linux kernel into Windows somehow. That's where the GPL comes in.
