Problem here is a category mistake -- people don't all test on Linux and
we do not require that (and won't). So arguing about the price of Linux
isn't going to help, because it can't be zero.

Does Moz have VM images for Linux development that can be turned on

I guess part of the equation is also familiarity with the toolchain,
but given that we already use mozilla-build on Windows I don't think
it would be a significant burden for someone with win32 as their
mother tongue, provided we can test the pretty-printers with a
shell-only build.
