No, I wouldn’t use that analogy at all. It has got nothing to do with running 
Windows programs on Linux.

Many people have had no problems getting mod_wsgi to work on Windows. It is 
impossible to know how your environment is set up whether you do in fact have 
all the right bits, and it is very important to have the right bits when using 
Windows.

Using Linux is much much simpler as you either are using system supplied 
binaries which have been matched together for you already, or you compile from 
source code and get exactly what you need. The latter is much more 
straightforward on Linux. Using Docker presents even simpler ways of doing 
things as there are Docker base images out there that have everything set up 
for you and you just need to add in your application code.

Right now it is becoming too difficult to understand what state your Windows 
system is in. Thus why perhaps suggest spend a bit of time learning about 
Docker and also Linux in general.

the other option is to not try and do things on your own system, but use a 
hosting service where they worry about setting up the server software. For 
experimenting, Heroku has a hobby tier which doesn’t cost any money.
