We have a phrase for a bricked windows install: it's called the Blue Screen of Death. It's not like Windows never gets fucked either.
I've personally never had such an issue upgrading Linux.
The BSoD isn't always a bricked Windows machine, it's often just an OS crash that causes you to restart the system.
