    Not sure how much of that is steam wanting to do that vs. steam wanting to look good in the eyes of publishers

    Or knowing that it’s essentially impossible to do with 99.99% of games currently on Steam. So, it might just be that they want to avoid the massive headache of having to renegotiate deals with thousands of publishers over millions of games.

      The publisher wouldn’t be able to enforce that stuff, doing that would be illegal for the same reason as Steam not allowing sales. Neither is permitted to keep end user licenses hostage.
