I feel like you're saying one operating system does it better, but I fail to think of one.

Eh, i was being facetious, but really the point being it's kind of beyond the scope of what a terminal is for if we start plugging in full colour rendering. It is still cool.

Windows allows you to set any pixel to any 24-bit colour.

Not really an OS thing, you can get 24 bit 'true' colour on Linux/macOS too depending on term. Alacritty supports it, for example.
