So why don't they just build a POSIX compliant system of their own over the Winblows kernel? Would be 10x better than this frankenbeast. I can't even begin to fathom the thought-process of the engineers behind this.

Open source is the new thing now. They wants to show people they are a nice company, that is open and not hidding anything.

It already could couldn't it? It was a pain in the ass, but you could get entire DEs going under cygwin.

Windows owns 90%+ of the desktop and are actively fishing for a small fraction of the <2% who still use Linux.
This is what you do when you run out of things you can do.
