Windows is like categorically maybe the OS most fundamentally unsuited for folks who appreciate sane ways of managing computers
Tell that to the billion-or-so Windows computers that are straightforwardly managed and remoted-into with Active Directory, SMB, and Remote Desktop. Not to mention group policies, registry files, and PowerShell.
It's interesting that these are completely orthogonal approaches. The UNIX world took a lot longer to develop fleet management tools, and when it did they came from a headless server point of view rather than the "hundreds of anonymous desktop machines" point of view.
Powershell remoting achieves similar management objectives to ssh but is a very different interface.
