You're telling me not a single Linux user who depended on that code working attempted to run the new code and correct the problems they encountered back in February?

Yet another unnecessary problem? Please outline how you would resolve the issues SE is addressing. Heck, I'll bet you don't even know why they've gone this route in the first place.
I am curious what exactly the problem was that they are trying to address, since anyone using steam has to now use the steam launcher. I don't remember SE stating that they were trying to tackle a cheating problem or botting problem or anything with this change, just that it was going to happen.
