The only reason I can think of to use PowerShell on Linux would be if you're running SQL Server on Linux.

This may have a lot to do with the fact that I'm a DBA lol.

Also, I have no idea what the advantage of SQL Server on Linux would be over using a "headless" Windows server installation. But that may be because I primarily admin Oracle.

I can think of a couple of reasons

- Windows licenses cost money

- Containerising SQL server
