> The nefarious part is that Windows enables Hyper-V even if you don't actually use Hyper-V VMs and never will.
It does not actually enable it by default but there are many settings or apps that can cause it to become enabled. Virtualization-based-security, WSL, container tools, etc. Providing a hypervisor and related functionality is part of what a modern OS kernel should do! It's not nefarious!
