What WSA does is allow me to to run an Android app exactly as if it was 
a Windows app. Maybe some of the other emulators are close enough to 
that, I don't know because I've never tried any of the other emulators.

I started using WSA before Microsoft decided to abandon it, so it was, 
at that point, a reasonable choice.

Maybe one of the other emulators would actually be better because WSA 
doesn't include the Google Play store, only the Amazon app store, which 
is pretty useless almost everything except maybe games.
