Running a Linux VM (or WSL) inside Windows Sandbox

I would like to run Windows Sandbox (that is based on Hyper-V) and inside there, I would like to run WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux, which runs on a Hyper-V VM). I believe that this might not work, but could anyone that’s tried this let me know a) if I should not waste my time trying?, and b) is there possibly any work around for this?

I tried to run VMware Player inside Windows Sandbox and it installs perfectly fine, but it would not let me create a VM.

It does not necessarily follow that a VM should not be able to run inside a VM; I’m hoping that someone more versed in advanced VM knowledge on this could explain my options for getting a Linux VM running inside a Windows Sandbox please?
