Not exactly. Of course Gabe could be replaced by some idiot who fucks everything up, but if Valve doesn't become publicly traded it will continue to be in the best interest of whoever ends up owning it to continue doing things this way. Gabe doesn't do good things just because. He does it because happy customers means more money in the long run.
Publicly traded companies on the other hand need to extract as much money as quickly as possible and have no regards to what will happen to it a few months later. So even if Gabe dies, all Valve needs is a leader interested in what's best for itself.
