It's not so much Win32 though on Xbox, the biggest similarity is the x86 CPU and the shared kernel and some security stuff

Edit: forgot the obvious, DirectX

It still retains the pigments which will reflect blue. We call pigments by the names of their colors even when they're in closed boxes in the dark, because we know their properties relative to white light.

They're probably building off Windows RT (the locked down variant designed for ARM tablets).

If they were smart they'd imitate some of how SteamOS runs games in a modified WinRT environment - TLDR do NOT start up the entire Win32 runtime and desktop environment by default, don't run stuff like printer services and whatnot, just run a simplified sandbox and window manager with just the APIs needed to run the games similar to Proton. Then let the user switch to desktop mode as needed, but don't run it when gaming.

A lot of these laws have to do with expected lifetime in "worst plausible storage conditions", like poorly sealed boxes and wrong temperature and humidity
