The core lesson should be "stop adding useless launchers" and even more so "stop making launchers the only way to change graphics settings". I'm glad the steam deck has rules in place that prevent games with a forced launcher to receive a "verified".
That's what I'm taking away from this anyway.
Yeah, making them the only way is stupid. But it's nice as a way out in case you configure yourself to an unrunnable state.
Totally not needed either. Just have an additional shortcut for "safe mode" and it's fine. No need for a full launcher just for that...
