It's not so much about stuff that isn't ultimately doable in Android (because everything ultimately is, it's just a matter of time), but about how things are in the here and now (or october, based on W8 release rumors). Also, I have next to no knowledge about the newest state of Android kb+m affairs, so please do correct me if I'm wrong about something.
For personal use, I'm a programmer, so (as you mentioned) IDEs are a no go on Android right now.
For mass consumers, I think the library they already have is the most important part. I know you mentioned games, but the availability of games on Android doesn't change that many gamers already own a few games they will want to continue playing. I know I'd want my Steam library to carry over now that the option is there.
I also imagine that file management isn't at the same level on Android as it is on Windows, not to mention support for external devices like DVD drives, digital cameras, printers, scanners (the ones that can't be connected to through the web at least) and whatever else you might want to plug in to your computer/tablet/device.
Plus I just think the Windows 8 interface is better.
