Running DOS in windows in another (multitasking, internet, multi core, big memory and so on) operating system gives me the advantages of both. Running classic software while also having all the modern stuff and multiple windows. Sticking all the modern features into DOS itself would turn DOS into something that is NOT DOS but in the best case like OS/2 and in the worst case some very niche "Windows mini me".
