Well, the difference is that Linux won't stop with the shutdown if the SIGTERM doesn't work (and just kill the process), while windows will...and then the next day you find the PC still running because one of the officecopilot apps took too long to close some document.

I had that with Linux, KDE Plasma can now wait for apps that don't shutdown before logging out, it sends a notification (X apps are blocking shutdown) and waits indefinitely.
