Really? Because steam has been selling games from companies who do this for years with the only backlash coming from upset customers that the corporations usually ignore anyways.
That's still for games sold through Steam. Most importantly, that's for games that the companies agreed to sell through Steam.
If I was Valve, my biggest concern here would be that officially selling a tool for sideloading Epic games could be seen as approving of breaking Epic's ToS. Epic is also very sue happy when it comes to attacking rival companies.
