Console gamers dont care about disk partitions, USB vendor codes, process ids, etc. They buy consoles because they dont want to learn, or they want to learn the least amount possible in order to have their game work.
A PC is a TOOL. One that you have to learn. And in the case of a Linux PC, it is a highly customizable tool that requires event more learning.

The point here is that no, it is not a requirement.
Valve is creating this as a closed-hood ready to use turnkey solution, but if anybody should choose to open the hood, it’s not locked and it easily opens.
The beauty of Valve’s goals is that they aim to get all games working out of the box with no muss or fuss. Just click and play. It is for all practical purposes a gaming console. It just so happens to be everything else as well.
