"Visual Studio - Proprietry languages,"
So?

"Proprietry compiler"
So?

"Windows-only differences everywhere "
So? POSIX-compliance is not a goal for Windows.

"MSSQL - Non standard syntax in places "

Ah, just like oracle, mysql, postgresql and every other sql database ever?

"Windows - Uses e/e/e SMB,
What should it use instead? NFS?

"XPS instead of PDF,"

PDF is not a standard (yet).

"WMV instead of MP2/4/AVI "

WMV is not comparable to avi. wmv is a set of codec technologies while avi is a container format. Guess who created AVI, btw?
