You are criticizing the verification system by comparing it to ProtonDB which, again, is a different thing.

Different in some ways but serves the same purpose.

Steam's verification isn't "inaccurate,"

Yes it is.

Crowdsourcing something like that would not be a good way for Valve to accomplish its goals.

Yes it would.

I don't know what else you expect me to say.

If Steam declares a game is "unsupported" but it runs perfectly fine, I don't know what other way to describe that than "inaccurate".

Crowdsourcing is obviously far more effective if you simply look at the ratings on SteamDB.
