Unfortunately, it is not just Tesla that is moving controls over to touch screen. The latest Honda vehicles have moved the majority of knobs to a touch interface.

In addition to this, reading and being able to understand other people's code will provide great returns. You learn about styling, coding standards, architecture, patterns, etc that you might have never stumbled upon if you attempted to code everything yourself.

I would say this is entirely dependent on your use case. If you are running some simple web services in a cloud environment, it is generally cheaper to run them on a Linux system. Granted, if you are developing in .NET, you have probably already forked over some heavy cash for the development tools (Visual Studio, the OS, ReSharper, etc...)
The key trade off is deciding if it is worth it to sacrifice compatibility with certain libraries for the development speed and costs of not having to learn an entirely new tech stack for yourself or your team.
