That might happen if any other launcher chooses to natively support Linux. Right now Steam is the best option.

Yeah, Heroic or whatever just isn't good enough. Joe Random doesn't want that kind of jank on his gaming appliance.

Honestly, I disagree with Heroic not being good enough, I think it's the only other launcher on Linux that is. It's very polished and everything has worked out of the box for me. The problem is simply that it's unofficial, no company would ship it on a gaming device.
