The windows application has only one noticeable advantage and that is out of the box graphical use without a technical manual. Linux users/programmers KNOW this. This isn't some magical wisdom that only windows users own, its common knowledge and its being addressed. And its not like Linux software programmers write software to be overtly complicated, they (for the most part) are from the same school of GUI appearance as Windows and, to a lesser extent, MacOS applications.
When large companies start to develop for Linux, they will make an impact, however that will mostly be due to a larger concentration on certain projects not a discovery of new problems.
