Are you saying Tails has a custom fork of TBB that spoofs the OS? Do you have a link to that patch?
Tails is an operating system. Try booting into Tails yourself and use various websites to see what I'm talking about: All of them report your operating system to be Windows, despite Tails being based on Debian.
Yes, and it comes with Tor Browser, which normally does not spoof your OS when probed via javascript (only the user-agent), that is why I asked if you had a patch to the source code, which is what they would have to be using in order to do what you're saying.
As it stands, I am not able to verify your claims, as Tor Browser on Tails 6.7 is still showing the true OS via javascript queries for me:
