As a Linux gamer, that uses Proton to play games, I'm sure glad they did.
Makes it easy to figure out if I should bother buying the game or not.

The big issue is when they randomly add it in the future. You can't buy games assuming they'll continue to work.
Point taken, but, nobody can tell the future (if they could, they'd be in Vegas doing two shows a night).
You make your "best guess" purchasing decisions at a single point in time.

Yep, it's something to consider when looking at multiplayer games and how "friendly" the developer/publisher has been in the past.
Rockstar, for example, has always been super shitty towards PC gamers.
Apex Legends was a bit of a surprise to me, and especially the doubling down with that stupid chart.
