There are many use cases where Linux can be the best option for the operating system. But we're talking about audio production, mixing, mastering, etc. Knowing your tools and having a productive and reliable workflow is the requirement no matter what OS you use.
When it comes to paying for software and licenses, that point becomes moot when you are all using software from sister site anyway. There are plenty of legal free options if that is the goal. It's great to say you can look and even audit the code for open-source software, but let's face facts. Few people using audio software within the scope of this discussion are doing so, or would know what they were looking at if they even did. Like the commenter above about CLI, touting the benefits of Linux; but who is exactly that sort of user; while running the most Windows-like linux distro they can find just to say they are running nix and just slowing themselves down the entire time.

There are always limitations in audio software, which a experienced user in the software will just know exactly what to do. Then there will always be someone who doesn't know what they are doing, who will come up with some "brilliant" new feature to request because they cannot understand the idea of workarounds. Your comment was about time management. For all the various tweaks and modifications people come up with to have all of this "more control", you'd think we'd be hearing all this new music reflecting that. Nothing could be further from the truth.

 

My original comment was about a user who understands that tools like Linux or Reaper are more advanced and give him more power but simply doesn’t want to spend time learning them. He dismisses the very idea of doing anything himself prefers something that doesn’t require much involvement, the same like choosing fast food over homemade.

We’re not talking about constantly editing or compiling code or writing scripts many of todays nix users are like those on other major OSes don’t do that, as you said yourself. What we’re talking about are the capabilities this type of software offers and the flexibility to expand it if you suddenly need to.
Simply declaring something “bad” or “unsuitable” because you don’t want to get too involved, spend time yet still expecting results, is exactly the mindset I was critiquing. Dismissing curiosity and exprimentation the chance to do things your own way instead of following the beaten path when you want it as inefficiency completely misses the creative side of using tools differently. Tools which, let me remind you, were created precisely to encourage that creativity...
But to each his own...
