Article doesn’t mention Wine even once. Great PR work from Valve.

That's too bad really. Wine is an incredible achievement, even Microsoft spends a lot of effort to keep Windows programs running on new versions, and Wine goes above and beyond every update.

If the writer knew about wine or playonlinux then this wouldn’t be an article though.
