You're right, but I think that's probably preferable to back when steam was much stricter about games on their platform. I remember a lot of good or promising games not being allowed onto steam, especially foreign VNs.

It's true there's a lot of crap on Steam these days, but generally we're not seeing good games being unable to get on the platform. And steam has tried to use curators/etc to give ways for users optional ways to cut out the crap and focus on a smaller number of recommended titles.
