They are the only platform owners championing for an open platform. That should be enough to consider them above all others, no trust required.

And "open" platform where they get a 30% cut.

I mean the devices where steam operates are fully open, even the ones valve makes. You can install any OS you wish, any software or competing store front and thus give them 0% cut.

You wouldn't complain that Walmart takes a X% cut when you have a healthy competitive market and can chose other store fronts with better prices.
