Linux with wine/proton already works pretty good for running Windows programs and games outside of Windows.

In games its on par except a couple niche situations with rootkits and other anti user solutions afaik.

Not if a game runs with EAC. I'm aware there IS a variant of EAC for Linux, but quite a few games I got and enjoy won't boot up on Linux because they won't implement the EAC variant for it.

A game I play often also has EAC but it worked on linux even on launch day using steam play and proton.
