Absolutely not.

If they want jobs as a developer there are plenty. If they see NEETs that just play video games all day it's probably their own lifestyle choices that are at fault

I'm not sure if/what they changed in the distribution itself, but tooling optimizations are in the list:

* Pengwin includes wslu, a set of useful open-source utilities for interacting between WSL and Windows 10

* Manage your Microsoft Windows and Azure deployments with PowerShell and azure-cli, command line tools for Azure.

* Enable/disable Windows Explorer shell integration.

* Configure experimental GUI settings, including a Windows 10 theme for your Linux applications, HiDPI support and international input methods.

* Create a secure bridge to Docker running on Windows.

* Support for many Linux graphical applications with no need to configure display or libGL in Pengwin. (Requires a Windows-based X server, such as X410.)

* Pengwin provides faster patching for WSL-specific bugs than any upstream Linux distro available on WSL.
