 So buying exclusive selling rights for the next year, of a game that was a mere 2.5 weeks from launching, will solve the issue of a supposed 'monopoly' from Steam?

I think 99% of people whining about it only care because they have Steam and only want Steam.  So is a game being exclusive to another store a problem? No more than a game being exclusive to Steam is. So if that is really your complaint, then I hope you are being consistent about it.  

People are mad because their having to face a trifling inconvenience of opening another launcher is more important to them than Valve abusing its market position to gouge the devs out of millions of dollars is.

Then you haven't read the thread or taken a close look at the issue at all.
