"All of this work is broadly applicable to the PC platform, and it’s going to continue to expand over time. Supporting multiple platforms, multiple chipsets, controllers for different machines that are out there and even ones that aren’t out yet."

[...] Valve's goal with the OS is to have it compatible with traditional PCs, laptops, portable consoles and any other formats.

An example would be Spelunky, it simply ran without issues on linux while not so much in case of windows

At other times, steam downloads would be slowed down on windows

Or there were complains of windows excessively forcing updates during one's steam gaming sessions

There were many such complains (& please do take my word with a grain of salt & do your own research as well)
