HDR10/Dolby Vision MP4 - Container (mis)identified as MOV?

Windows cannot play HDR10/Dolby Vision MP4 without remuxing, claiming the container is MOV

There has to be an overlap between container and codec support. From what I'm reading, Chrome supports H264 in m4v, but not HEVC? Which is why it is remuxing to MP4, if this is correct.

Not sure about the "MOV" part. m4v is an Apple proprietary implementation of MP4, so maybe that is why?
