Inform yourself what Steam Linux Runtime is before making such comments. You are 100% wrong.
If a game depends on an API and this API gets discontinued, without adaptation it will have problems. That’s true for any software and any system. As a compatibility layer, Proton can keep old games compatible despite the system changes when it translates the API calls that the games depend on to what the base system has to offer.
(I’m not talking necessarily of a game running on Steam in this case)
So you’re too lazy to read up on Steam Linux Runtimes and expect me to explain it to you? SLR 1.0 Scout keeps full binary compatibility to Ubuntu 12.04, so 12 years already. SLR APIs don’t change. That’s the point. Get a clue.

So, enlighten me, where am I wrong?
