Interesting. I know that people have contributed in the past fixes to 
make PROJ *compilable* with UWP, but as we don't have a CI target for 
that, it is unknown how it behaves at runtime.

GDAL likely fails to build with UWP according to 
https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/issues/1201

Without a CI target that can be hooked into github action (maybe that 
exists. didn't check), UWP compatibility on the long term is going to be 
hard to achieve.
