That’s quite a few operating systems!
Out of curiosity why all the Windows ones?
So, what’s the advantage over Manjaro’s openbox?

The answer is simple. Each machine has a different version of Windows installed. All of these computers, without exception, are dual-booted.
Yeah I see that. However, I wanted to know why you have several versions of windows? Do you have a a benefit for each one for example?
Just curious

I installed Windows 8 on one of my laptops that had Windows 7 preinstalled because I had a discounted upgrade license that Microsoft later allowed for a full installation. My other laptop originally had Windows Vista installed, I bought a used Windows 7 Pro license and upgraded it in place. I had Windows 7 Pro on my desktop originally, and I had an unresolved network error that I could only fix by reinstalling, so I preferred to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro during the free upgrade campaign. By the way, I also test programs under Windows. Nowadays, I use Windows less and less, because each machine also runs a Linux distribution, which was also added to the device after a long test. Was my answer satisfactory? 
As I have literally just finished reading this article. I’m going to assume your question about your answer being satisfactory was not sarcastic, nor did it come from a place of malcontent, or defensiveness.
I didn’t want you to justify your reasoning for how all your windows partitions came to be. I only asked you why you had so many? As I was genuinely curious why a member of the FOSS/Linux community would have so many versions of various Windows operating systems on their systems.
So in this case a simple answer of “Hi Janinah, I test programs under windows” would have been suffice 
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer (с) 
P.S. Hey, hey!! Not THAT close! 
Windows should sit isolated in VM.

Anyway, the different versions of Windows probably stayed on my machines not only because of testing, but also because of my laziness and habit.

Whoever uses Windows is already an enemy?

Fair enough
I took more of a nuclear/radical approach and nuked the windows partitions off 2 of the systems in our house. I’d like to get rid off Windows partitions off my other 2x machines too, however I’ve kept those partitions as a backup for gaming purposes. But, thankfully I haven’t had to use them as I’ve had no trouble gaming and working from the linux partitions \0/
