Huh? Windows 10 has been shipping the C standard library for quite a while now, you don’t need to ship any redistributables... yes you need to static link the C++ standard library but that is also a requirement if you ship on Linux since Debian/Ubuntu always have horrendously outdated copies, heck I have customers that still use Ubuntu 16 that I have to support. At the end of the day none of this is any different from shipping containers or flatpaks, which bundle all the dependencies with them. In many ways Windows has escaped the DLL hell that plagued it in the past, whereas Linux still has some learning to do.
