I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.

I think the implication is that pursuing Linux development has a high opportunity cost, that, if they just bought into Windows as the foundation, they could've used that time to build HL3 or whatever
It's reinventing the wheel, kinda
Then you'd have a windows based steam deck. Valve got themselves into the mobile market by doing this. I imagine the Linux ecosystem will prove better for continuing mobile gaming in the long run.
Also, there are multiple scripts for HL3 and Portal3. They have all been rejected, considered not up to par as a third game in each series.
