Even for non-gamers, the magic dust that keeps many Windows games usable on Linux can also be used for non-game Windows apps and everyone can benefit from those compatibility leaps and bounds.

If you're one of those people who like Linux but still need to have a Windows install to run That One App for work or whatever, WINE/Proton/etc. may be of use to you.
