Neither does Unix. Any process that can send you a signal can send you
SIGKILL.

Of course, what Windows lacks is a generalized way for other processes
to send "less destructive" signals that do give you a chance to clean
up. (You can sometimes send a ctrl-break event, but that's it.) And most
frameworks for "emulating" them (including python's os module) simulate
sending other signals by calling TerminateProcess with an exit status
related to the signal.
