I experience the same sentiment, yet we cannot force our Linux OS to obey our every desire while expecting studios to treat them the same as a static target like Windows. Take a step back and consider the bigger picture. The Steam Deck and Valve have significantly advanced wine development, making it mostly smooth. More gamers are now using Linux, and for those who have been doing so for a long time, the revenue from these new Linux players is supporting development and greatly improving our experiences.
A brief glance at their site gives the impression of "Matured Fedora." One point that caught my attention was the EAC/GLibc setup problem, which suggests they're likely keeping up with the gaming community's needs. Whether the red hat team is hindering their progress remains unclear. I didn't find anything on their page that would warrant a harsh reaction, but from an OS perspective focused on fulfilling requirements, it seems their presence might be slightly excessive. My suggestion is to test it—if it doesn't meet your expectations, discard it and explore alternatives. Usually, picking your top three or four choices, trying each one, and judging them independently works best. If none suit you, install Arch or Gentoo and force the installation.
