I hope the lesson they take is "selling complete games with no online bull or micro transactions is popular and profitable"

Steam could absolutely tamp down on this, by changing early access refund policy to be more restrictive.

Early access money should not be guaranteed. If someone wants a refund outside of the two hour or whatever game time they should get most of their money back. The timer should also reset at release, and players get a full refund if the gameplay isn't what was promised.
