I think games running through proton and wine support it.

So it feels like these are all extra layers. I haven't used Wine in years, but it was very frustrating the last time I tried it.

By comparison (don't crucify the messenger), Windows supports it by default. This is one of the many reasons why I still game on Windows. In general, games just work. You click install and then play and you're up and running in just a few minutes.

...I'll see myself out.

Running games through Proton is as simple as clicking install and then play on Steam. You might need to enable Steam Play or such but I haven't had setup or config troubles with games in years now
