GOG is fine and probably won't interfere, but a paid plug-in for Epic who very well might just arbitrarily break shit because they can seems like a bad idea.

First Steam Deck plugin on Steam will bring GOG and Epic Games compatibility
(www.gamingonlinux.com)
A paid plug in just seems pretty shitty to begin with.
I know Heroic can add your GOG and Epic games to Steam which would make it moot, but unfortunately most people probably don't use the desktop mode anyway.
Why is this needed when Heroic Launcher is a thing? It can even add the games to Steam for you.
