"Delusion" may be too strong a word here, but "ignorance" is almost certainly not.

Though to be sure, "PC" means "personal computer" and for this individual it might be the exact best experience they could have running Windows. It just isn't for a great deal of other people because they value different things.

I value GPU power, installing Steam, Battle.net (with maxed out settings), ~15" screens and a few other things that make my HP Omen 15 the best Windows laptop I've ever owned. And I value selecting and assembling my own components, performance value, tricked out RGB lighting and large high resolution external monitors, so my custom desktop is the best Windows desktop I've ever owned.

But I certainly don't get the mobility or battery life of an M1 Macbook. So if you value those things highly enough, you may get a better Windows PC experience on one.
