Easier to target a specific device though.

I've today given the feedback to Fanatical, suggesting they add the game name below each thumbnail on bundle pages. I agree it would make it better.

If Proton is already so much better, why does Steam not reflect that in its auto-selection of compatibility tools?
For Steam Deck, it already does in a way, with Deck Verified picking what version runs best between Native and Proton. Over time I would expect Valve to allow developers to specifically tag they support Proton, but I guess they're just not there yet. Perhaps when we get a new Steam Machine console we may see a bigger push?

Everything but Stardew Valley in your list are all pretty old ports at this point, can't say I ever had a problem with Stardew Valley Native Linux though. ARK Survival Evolved is pretty notorious for being a terrible port even when it was fresh, was laughable at times how little went into that one.

The problem is often that developers simply don't spend enough time on the Linux version, so Proton will naturally run the Windows version better over time with all the resources poured into Proton with the specific purpose to runs games on Linux as best as possible.

If you scroll down on their bundle pages you can properly flick through each game.

This has always been a co-op game, so I don’t really understand the complaint.

You really don't need all that much space. When I play, I put down a really small floor mat (really small, just a square), and don't move from it. Helps stop you bumping into things too, as long as you feel the mat, you're good.

More space is better of course, but it's easily doable.

Edit: before doing this floor mat idea, I regularly punched things. My desk, the window... 😆
