Is this the part where they extinguish Linux (except for where they've embraced it with WSL)?

No. MSFT has bet the business on Cloud and while the virtualization stack they use is Hyper-V, they have a TON of products running Linux under the hood in the cloud.

A big chunk (I don't know the real number, but it's closer to 50% than 10%) of customer vm's on Azure are running Linux.

All this to say, MSFT is highly invested in the Linux ecosystem. They would be shooting themselves in the foot to try and kill it off at this point.
