Not sure I understand why this item is in here. Does it mean "we only check for plugins in macOS and Windows"?

That's a very good question!
OVAL definitions only test things installed via the package manager (rpm, apt, etc) - so, at least on Ubuntu, we will be only targeting a small subset of those - if we want to scan for browser plugins on Linux using the NVD dataset we just need to change this
From:
CPEs, err := ds.ListSoftwareCPEs(ctx, oval.SupportedHostPlatforms)
To:
// Exclude Linux package sources: rpm, deb, ...
CPEs, err := ds.ListSoftwareCPEs(ctx, oval.SupportedSources)
