This flap is a remarkably crisp example of a Kegan stage conflict:
To the wokeswarm, this is about group identity, rejecting the outgroup and affirming the ingroup. Stage 3.
To Steam, this is about institutional rules and border cases. Stage 4.

Wokeswarm reads Valve's letter and, literally unable to grasp what's written, only sees "bla bla bla" and does *not* see "we affirm the articles of the faith and use them to decide our actions"; thus, to them, Valve is basically as bad as rapists themselves, or worse -- liars.
