Maybe someone will finally build my dream: a WSL distro that I can also dual-boot natively. I'd love to switch between bare-metal Windows with WSL and bare-metal Linux with virtualized Windows at my leisure!

Parallels on Mac did this in reverse a decade ago. You could dual boot windows and MacOS, or you could boot into your windows OS while running MacOS and access both file systems properly.

Ok but MacOS is the worst of the 3 worlds. It can't run Linux or Windows apps

When you use WSL2, Windows itself is running virtualized on Hyper-V.

At least with VirtualBox and VMWare it is possible (not actually WSL but still).
