My point is that if you are in IT and your organisation wants to force you to run Windows or something while you are running QubesOS (or some setup with VM isolation) then you have to consider whether you want to work with that company.
That's the way the cookie crumbles. And there is nothing wrong with running Windows as a development OS. It serves some of the best out there. If you don't like it find another company that has their hate on for Windows and apply for a job there. It's that simple. With such a mentality a developer won't last in a dev house contracting for companies like FNB, ABSA, Old Mutual etc. where they have very strict requirements on the environments, technology, practices etc. that you are allowed to use and implement. It's not up to you as a developer. If your client or your employer says jump you ask how high (whether you like it or not), you don't say fuck off (unless you want another job).
PS: This is not aimed at you directly, this is just a general statement.
