In the example you gave of Steam, I'd agree the filter should not be there. But unfortunately that blade cuts both ways, also filtering out review bombers that did it because a game includes a trans character or whatever, which is actually useful.
Yep, there's a fine line between moderation and censorship, and it often depends on the affected's perspective
At least you can turn of the filter.
