Also, thank you windows for not having consistent interface ids after reboot. I had to rewrite a configuration file every startup with powershell in order to tackle this case.

Interfaces are persistent in Windows, that's why they get assigned such silly names as "LAN interface (42)".

If the mapping between the logical and physical interfaces changes, that probably means that your NICs lack proper IDs to differentiate them or the bus topology is somehow not stably sorted. I wouldn't blame the OS for this.
