I agree with your point, but I never would have thought of describing Windows as "polished".

It's a sliding scale

Sure. I could accept hearing "Windows is more polished than most Linux distro's". But to say blankly that Windows is polished is crazy talk. It's jank as balls. Its got like 3 totally discrete and independent UI frameworks for the menus operating in parallel, and somehow none of them provide all the functionality you would need, have to mix and match them.

That's just a single example. I could rant for hours.
