Valve’s goal with it is to “have a standardized interface so that SteamOS specific features in the Steam client, e.g. TDP management, can be exposed in any linux distro that provides an implementation of this DBus API”
Some companies are trying to move core features under their closed source umbrella and Valve is exposing their features so that other Linux distros can make use of it.

This right here is why I fucking hate Google. They aren’t closed source per se but why the fuck didn’t they make Chrome OS just another Linux distro. They could have made a whole desktop environment usable on any other Linux distro. But no why give back when they can just take and take and take. The only time they give back is when they contribute to the kernel but that’s just for them
