However, I didn't just come here to rant. Since, as I said, I've yet to see this get brought up, I would like some perspective. Please lend your thoughts on this matter.

Oh god.. please say this is speculation. source? EDIT* nm I found it. I really hope it's not really a
"let anyone put anything on Steam" type of thing.. that could be bad.
As for OP. I look at it like this. If a developer needs to give away keys to get greenlit.. it's very likely they will just be wasting their own time and money developing a game nobody is going to want. Not to mention it just looks bad. IMO steam should put an end to it.
