Soon, some linux newbies would search for how to do something with sudo and spent an hour scratching their head trying to figure out why the command not working, only to realize they copy pasted sudo command for windows instead.

Or the other way around

Most likely the other way around. They'll see the guide mention Windows and bail out because it's proprietary

I meant that window users will see Linux commands since Linux has been around for much much much longer and window users will get confused. Which is good, we need people to start hating Windows so they'll consider Linux
