I hate that I’m in the middle of editing a long video using an archaic Vegas release; I’m sure there’s great video editing suites on Linux but I’m a bit blocked from switching right now.

totally understand the being locked in. that being said, when you're ready, check out kdenlive.

Agreed. There are other options, but I as a beginner started with kdenlive (something looked right about it, I guess) and I really like.

Kdenlive works on Windows

You should try DaVinci Resolve when you're done.
Let me tell you, as someone who used Vegas for ages, the grass is so much greener on the other side.
The workflow is different, and while I think Vegas is still the king for throwing a bunch of clips in and chopping them up fast, the time you save from not having to deal with their awful Crop & Pan tool, and their buggy renderer (especially on the old versions) is well worth the learning curve.
