They don't relly know better. Windows is familiar, Linux sounds too complicated and techy. Hell, I was thinking the same and I'm reasonably tech savvy. It's infinitely more friendly than I'd ever expect.
People are afraid of change and unknown. Though ironically Linux might actually be closer to the original Windows experience that Win11 is (speaking from my limited experience with Mint)
