That would be security theatre. Any actually dangerous attack on systems such as these is likely to be bespoke, like stuxnet. Therefore the platform doesn't matter.

Also, it shouldn't be too hard to create a virus that could spread via windows PCs but still carried a linux payload, for example.

As soon as you're up against bespoke, targeted attacks, the whole game changes.
