What? So in your head Valve has to be okay with companies using their infrastructure for everything while selling the main access elsewhere just because it’s a bad idea not to have your game in Steam?
Look, if this had been a “you can’t sell the same thing cheaper elsewhere or we delist you” kind of deal I would agree it’s using their power to dictate price. But from what that other commenter said this was the other company selling a cheap launcher on Steam and then selling in-game content for everything inside it. So try were making Valve pay the price to host the full game but only selling some content of it on their store. It’s like saying Epic launcher were to be sold on Steam (except even worse, because it’s a launcher that contains the full game thus forcing Valve to foot the bill for hosting/downloads while the other company takes the profit for the game sale).
