Okay. ???

I didn't say the different architecture is the only problem; nor did I say that a different operating system is not the problem. 
I simply related my experience. There is no need to read more into what I said than that.

`zig targets | grep -i windows`
   "windows",
   "aarch64_be-windows-gnu",
   "aarch64-windows-gnu",
   "armeb-windows-gnu",
   "arm-windows-gnu",
   "x86-windows-gnu",
   "x86_64-windows-gnu",

Do you know for a fact that Zig will not target Windows?
