You can always use virtualized Linux to avoid the NTFS penalty (WSL2, VS Code dev containers, etc.)

Moving your whole workflow into WSL or nested containers just to dodge NTFS is a band-aid. Then you get flaky file watchers, odd perms, and a dev setup that feels like a workaround piled on top of another workaround. A fast Node VFS would remove a lot of this nonsense.
