I keep dual windows on laptop for rare occasions cuz I don't like dealing with passthrough for special USB cables that require their own drivers on VMs

Yep, pretty much the same reason, just have to use it, mostly because of software that interacts with hardware, in one way or another.

USB cables require drivers? 👀

Well USB to serial port to some weird custom 6 pin connector for a certain machine.

Or car data link adapter
