if you had 2 or more options on the table, one that forces you to go to work in a Tuxedo and one that doesn’t, would you still claim it’s insane to turn down the Tuxedo offer?
You’d have to get two offers, accept one of them, start getting onboarded by the company you accepted, learn about the OS policy, without the second offer having expired. Maybe your experiences are different but based on mine that’s completely unrealistic.
Or maybe the second offer came in after having accepted the first one. That seems a lot more realistic, though extremely dependent on timing. But the most realistic scenario is, OP already had a job. But honestly if OP wasn’t just karma farming I’d expect them to have included the full story. So I’m pretty inclined to think this whole thing is bullshit.

If I’m being given the Tuxedo, I’m gonna make that look spiffy every day.
That said, Windows is in no way a Tuxedo.
Windows is more of a “your socks must be damp at all times while on the clock” policy.
Not exactly going to prevent you from getting your work done, but unpleasant, and you’ll be miserable the whole time.
Yeah, but if I’m paid for my time that’s only my time, being miserable requires extra payment.
