The only thing I can remember ever using that needed Hyper-V is WSL2, 
and you're right, I'm not currently actually using the two together, as 
I'm running VirtualBox on a Linux system.

They can be used together on Windows, but VirtualBox has to run in its 
software virtualization mode.

My guess is that they didn't know about the URL above. 8-)

I haven't actually tried it recently. I used to run VirtualBox on a 
Windows 10 system with WSL (the first version).
