Force Valve to include an unofficial storefront of a platform that doesn't support that that operating system at all? Maybe once EPIC officially supports Linux and with their store client and games a case could be made, but that would force steam and epic to come preinstalled on all windows computers too by the same logic.

I never said valve should be forced to deliver heroic. Epic will in some point in time release a Linux client.

And no it wouldn't force Steam and Epic to come preinstalled on a Windows computer, because the Steam Deck ships steam per default. Windows ships Edge and is forced to make it easier to get other browsers. Its really not that complicated.
