You're talking about a specific AC. Your OP was a general statement about all ACs. And it's not true because many simply do not offer this option to run in userspace mode only, as seen by battlefield and COD and other games like League of Legends.
Could they? Maybe? We don't know it's a bunch of proprietary black box code anyways.
But presenting it like it's a choice by Dev studios to just tick a box during AC setup is not a valid thing to say about all cases.
The only mention of AC was done by me and I specifically used EAC as an example of devs not caring about Linux. I was not making any generalized statements about ACs on Linux and whether some other ACs would take more effort to get them working on Linux is irrelevant because my point was that if most devs can't even take 5 minutes to get something working they're not going to do something take would take even more time.
That's fair.
