Not being bristly at all. Your comments seem to assume: 1) People don't already know (check the thread you're in) 2) Valve is doing something wrong, and/or 3) They are somehow at fault for something, like stolen valor or not giving credit where credit is due.
You suggested your comment was pedantic, and I confirmed, and it's because of your tone. I'm not rage replying to your comments, just correcting the context because I feel you have the wrong take.
If you can say that about one thing you can say it about anything, including your first comment I replied to, which heavily implied valve is to credit for everything even though a large share of the work over the years has been done by passionate people for no compensation.
Nope, was only adding a little context, because though you claim everyone viewing this thread would already know, I'm sure you're incorrect.
