I would say that you see it from different perspective.

It is Windows/Linux that are becoming irrelevant.

Future is about browser applications/mobile applications and cloud workloads.

Yes of course there are uses for desktop computing but those are specialists.

While general public will be using phones and tablets not even owning a laptop. On the phone/tablet people don't even care what is the OS.

I already know people who don't have computers at home, only tablets/phones/gaming consoles. Normal people want to play games, message each other, no one cares about OS an Microsoft knows that.
