If you don't know Mac/Linux you would have to deal with learning both.
If you are doing code development connecting from a Windows workstation it might be easier to connect to a locally installed instance and takes less hardware.

The only drawback - there is no Microsoft Solitaire :)

Jokes aside maybe you'll miss InterSystems Studio. But VSCode does more than Studio can.

Also Docker is much more stable on Mac.
