i don’t think anyone in this thread is saying we shouldn’t have proton,

Really?

On the one hand, it’s a shame in general, as Proton has truly been a pesky thorn on the foot for Linux gaming

Cause that implies wanting to get rid of it. You don't tend to fondly keep as a momento the thorn in your foot.. you rip it out and get rid of it.

You are the one choosing to read it that way and then hallucinating a whole sort of "perfection or nothing" argument from that.

Feels like you have some bone to chew, and I'm not exactly sure what kind of bone.
