Assessment: 🟢 APPROVE

The change correctly removes the "(Linux only)" qualifier from the Unix socket scheme description. Windows has supported AF_UNIX sockets since Windows 10 build 17063 / Windows Server 2019, and Docker on Windows supports unix:// connections. The table remains internally consistent — npipe:// retains its "(Windows only)" qualifier since named pipes are genuinely Windows-specific.

No bugs or inaccuracies were found in the changed lines.
