Yeah I really don’t understand this why specifically the gaming communities seem to suffer from this problem more than others.
Perhaps it’s not reported on as much in other hobby circles, or it’s a confirmation bias on my part.
Regardless, it’s really disappointing that these communities have this ‘there I go death-threating again’ stigma growing against them. Absolutely disgusting.

I hope this means we eventually see other Battle.net games come to Steam, even as a showing of good faith. I’d love to see some of the older Blizzard games on Steam.

I agree, but certainly not all launchers are at the same maturity. I love Steam because it’s so much greater than the sum of its parts – community controller layouts, cloudsaves, Workshop, forums and community content, a marketplace. I do have other launchers with a fair share of games (GOG for example), but still it’s not nearly the experience of Steam.
If you pre-order and then cancel, would you keep access to Soap in Warzone?
