I think there is a difference between allow and promote.
I would be especially wary of promoting something like steam without some
strong warnings as steam is going to be doing some amount of spying on you
to enforce their DRM and is going to be significantly modifying the graphics
system and breakage in that area is not going to be supportable by Fedora.
"going to be significantly modifying the graphics system" ... what
does that even mean?
afaik it does not do any such a thing. It is just an X / SDL2 + OpenGL
application like any other ("just" closed source).
