Even though when a game not published by Microsoft is sold on Steam Microsoft gets 0 dollars from the transaction?  That's not MS exclusive to me at all.

What does that have do with the fact that a Microsoft platform is required to access such Steam content?

The fact that Microsoft isn't getting anything out of it has everything to do with it.  Otherwise, they wouldn't have launched their games only in their own store to compete with Steam.

 

Also, as others have pointed out, you don't actually need a Microsoft OS to play the games.  There are workarounds that are not Microsoft products that can be used on PCs without the Win OS.
