What you're describing in 3. is the exact reason why I said "build software from scratch" btw. Some software just will never work properly or never work period. And usually, every Linux compatible software can technically do 80% of the stuff you need, but even that takes 10x the time and effort. I'm talking 3d applications like AutoCAD, cinema4d, DAWs like FL Studio and Ableton, video cutting like Sony Vegas or Adobe Premiere Pro, and this is not even talking about use cases where there's highly specific, proprietary or custom software.
You either use Windows, or you pay with your time, effort and sanity.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a data scientist and software Dev and I know there are good reasons why Linux should be the golden standard. But I'm also a realist and while I love the idea of what Linux' goal is, it's a really hard sell for most non computer science people.
