People who run 10,000 computers runs Linux its all but necessary for the low level access, user access control and maintenance, also you need far fewer people to deploy and manage.

Also maybe not 10,000 but I manage a network of 50

My guy, I do systems/infra at a place with roughly 5,000 machines. The only things in our environment running Linux are network appliances (firewalls, load balancers, etc).

Low level access, UAC, etc is all more than possible in a Microsoft environment. Pleass stop larping just because you're personally more comfortable with Linux.
