For sure, but just as an example I tried starting Black Mesa on steam yesterday, which has a native release, but had to tinker quite a bit to get it working. Unfortunately I think it's often the case that the native releases gets forgotten and lags behind the windows/proton releases

They also removed hardware encoding. They've had the same shitty h264 1080p encoder forever, but it was better than nothing.
What about the three-trolley problem though?
Electric bikes is where it's at. Cities has to be built with bikes in mind though
Not with disputed territory afaik
Encrypted during transfer, yes, but still decrypted in the apps
Yes, their first attempt used load order overrides and search patch patching. Now, it uses linux containers to ship an isolated environment. Think of it as more similar to docker (or LXC/LXD). That said, I haven't used it myself to so cannot comment on how difficult it is to use. Most people here are advocating for them permitting proton use without necessarily supporting it officially though. Which can easily be done by changing an option in EAC.
Dude, steam ships with a bunch of libraries enabling cross distro support. It ain't that complicated https://gitlab.steamos.cloud/steamrt/steam-runtime-tools/-/blob/main/docs/container-runtime.md
Both. One downside seems to be the required pressure necessary when mounting. Noise normalized performance and overall value is great though. The phantom spirit is a slightly upgraded version with one more heat pipe compared to PA120SE
The air cooler market is very competitive right now. Noctua has great customer support and quality, as always, but there are better value options.
I would pick Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE, or alternatively the Peerless Assassin 120 SE
Did you read my comment? They ship with libraries to unify distribution across distros
