Yeah but they haven't bothered making their store run natively on linux.

Yep and that's a separate issue I think you would be perfectly entitled to be upset about. I'm just thinking through serving something as complex as anticheat to an audience the size of Fortnite's for the potential gain of a small Linux footprint (for now). Not many businesses would jump for that.
