My favorite thing about Bootcamp is just how bare minimum everything else. (If you can't tell, I'm being sarcastic)
Bluetooth audio (or at least specifically AirPods) is basically not usable due to excessive crackling and sync issues, and the trackpads don't have precision drivers. On top of that the display calibration has been off since day one.

The problem is that once you start installing regular drivers stuff starts to break. For example, the latest Broadcomm drivers for the WiFi card breaks wireless internet access (but seems to fix my Bluetooth audio issues).
The whole thing is a mess because Apple doesn't really care about supporting a feature of their products beyond just getting the thing to turn on.

@TheGlenlivet Yes, running Windows in a VM is a lot worse than running on bare hardware, mostly in the graphics area.
I have had numerous issues with Bootcamp on my MacBook Pro. Bluetooth mice won't work, the trackpad is almost garbage and the display constantly switches between warm white and cool white. It is really annoying.

Bootcamp is better in terms of performance as Windows is running on the hardware directly (macOS isn't even running) just like any other laptop. Virtualization isn't really bad if you just need to run some specific Windows software, but if that software needs any decent amount of power it isn't going to work.

A programmer can’t carry two laptops around with them. That doesn’t make any sense.
