Why wouldn't an Arch branch not be Linux?
Completely irrelevant because Steam games don't run on Android.
Because it's Valve's own OS. They might consider being first-party sufficient reason to not to lump it in with its third-party cousins.
It's based upon the well established distro Arch, and thus still considered Linux. A distro is basically the Linux kernel with pre-installed packages. SteamOS only adds another layer of packages unto Arch afaik.
