Very interesting news. I haven’t tried it out personally; But if it works, I imagine that’d be huge.

The WSL part was just a joke, but I do sometimes test apps on waydroid as I am using an IPhone currently and I want to switch, so for that I try apps on waydroid so I can easily replace IOS exclusive apps when I make the switch.

You should go another level deeper, VirtualBox > Windows > WSL > Waydroid > Lindroid
