I know all that. Don't forget, I've lived here my whole life and know the mailbox companies. Let the Caymans and Co have them. It's not as if they actually leave money here (tax rates close 0 benefit no one except corporations).

While, myself, I have never been there, I know too many people who have.

I had a system where switching a SCSI card with a NIC from PCI1 to PCI2 (and vice versa of course), made Windows 2000 bluescreen. Just switching those two cards. Nothing else and the SCSI had only a scanner attached, no bootable devices.
So, yes, that is long ago, but Windows 2000 implies at least the year 2000.
Linux didn't complain at all.... Yes, I was running Linux back then in dual boot.

I am a citizen of Luxembourg and I don't get these advantage and I have a tax rate of 39% together with my wife. I also know small business owners here and they don't get to play these games either.

Interestingly in many languages it is "heaven", just not in English. Deutsch = "Steuerparadies", French = "Paradis Fiscal", Dutch = "Belastingsparadijs". They all literally mean "tax heaven".
You're right, it's not correct in English, but you might see that the error is understandable if you're not a native English speaker. I'm not and funnily enough, I am from Luxembourg.
