"Gentleman's NDA" is not a thing. It's either a legally-binding NDA or it's not. It's within Valve's right to ban him from the game but saying the game shouldn't be covered at all is silly.

It is. It's called Trust.

If I call you a friend and tell ypu something confidential I trust you to not talk about with someone else and you do regardless, I will quit the friendship.
