Yes, exactly. I wonder how many new, non-technical users tried Proton for the first time with the setting off and decided it was crap because nothing worked. I’m glad Valve decided to do this now.

I have seen the other way around, a friend had Steam installed on their Linux PC but Proton was off and she didn't know what it was.
