    Linux via Proton is effectively an emulation or translation layer,

    Akshually, wine is not an emulator!

    I’ll see myself out.

      Mmn yeah. I described it as a translation layer also, which is more accutate, but I used The Bad Word because more people have an understanding of what an ‘emulator’ is in common usage and it felt appropriate in this context.
