I would argue that they are financially motivated to keep proton and Linux gaming going and not just out of the kindness of their hearts. They are competing with Microsoft and their store. When your competition has complete control of the OS you need to run your store on, you are at the total mercy of them. They can't afford not to keep on their current track. Especially now that they are successfully doing it, going back would be a death sentence.
