It's technically incredible this goal, but I'll prefer to keep using my Ubuntu with Linux.

I'm not so sure. I've been running Linux console-based tools using Cygnus for 15 years now.

That they got the proprietary MS C (or C++ or DotNet) compiler to succcessfully compile GCC code is a lot of work, but for all practical purposes, no forward progress.

Now, if they ported the user security model, the executive and the GUI subsystems to Windows, well, then they might have a decent distro!
