The only few reason I know so far is software availability, like adobe software, and Microsoft suite. Is there more of major reasons that I missed?

There are good paid alternatives for music. The question was about Linux, not FOSS. Comparing to Ardour is unfair

Because in yanks number out of ass 87.74% of threads of “why use X? Linux has Y, it’ll do everything you want”

Ardour/LO/etc are great for what they are and have their uses, but there are some apps that just aren’t available on Linux and the claimed alternatives really don’t work.
