How can this be?! I thought games on Steam had to have DRM.

Nope, it's an optional module of Steamworks. (And using Steamworks at all is also optional.)

Yes, I was trying to make a joke, since you read it so often, that games on Steam always have DRM.

What steam provides is weak and optional.

Did you edit it or was it really like that when I replied?
