The same people will generally accept that a ps4 game won't play on an xbox etc. So it is a bit odd.

That’s a bad analogy because 99% of the games that people play on steam machines will be Windows games, not Linux games. It’s an issue when you don’t know if a steam game will work on a steam machines, or any other PC game won’t work on your pc.

This is a genuine concern. Kernel level applications being required is not.

It is when the reason they don’t work on Linux is because it doesn’t support kernel level anti-cheat.
