WINE

Not

Emulator

What makes you think they are referring to Wine in that particular case, and not the emulation of the kernel level anticheat on userland? It's also arguably not an entirely correct use of the word there either, but it's fine.

What makes you think they are referring to Wine in that particular case.

Them talking about Lutris and Wine in that same paragraph and using the phrasing "even allowing" implying it's what they're currently doing. But looking again, you're right. They were referring to VMs.
