Even thought Microsoft is one company, all the internal teams are separate, don't communicate and usually do what they want with no regard to anything else the other teams are doing. Been an issue with Microslop for years, and its especially noticeable in their office/email divisions.

WRC24 worked great under Linux for quite a while, then they released their anti-cheat update, blocking any Linux users on Proton. Then they abruptly just stopped working on WRC altogether. So no chance ever of playing WRC on Linux.

So, fuck EA and their bullshit.
