While I don’t think this in particular would cause people or businesses to switch away from Windows, more and more applications work from browsers so they depend less and less on apps you can install. ( Where I work we already put many people on M365 basic because they do just fine with accessing their mail and spreadsheets from the browser. No point in paying extra for options they’ll never need)
You can buy versions of it that don’t smell like eggs, though they never smell good. That it turns purple is convenient when you spray it off, imho at least.
