I get the games on epic but I haven't even bothered playing them because I game exclusively on linux and just have not bothered with lutris / heroic etc. Proton with steam is just effortless and after years of tinkering with wine back in the day I want the simplicity

Heroic also makes it effortless, but I agree with all your points.
