Valve: "We're not PS3 developers"

Actually i'm pretty sure Valve said "Really you want to port it to the PS3? Ok."

Then took the free money EA gave to let them do it. Valve wasn't looking to make a PS3 orange box... they weren't even looking for a port team... they didn't see it as profitable. EA came to them about it though and the deal was struck.

Yeah, probably right. 

EA was stinking it up early on with the Cell, too.  So we don't need anything else to explain the lack of optimization, I guess.
