That's always been Epic's model. Even in their first month they were using nearly new games being given for "free" as the bait to get people onto them.
Given its basically the only time they even see any engagement or numbers from customers, I'd bet they are considering the direct monetary loss worth the gain from being able to show the out of context "sales and monthly visitors" numbers to companies to try and weasel more exclusivity contracts or investments.
Honestly by even having their garbage on your computer or taking advantage of their cheap bait, you are probably making the problem worse and helping them try to tank the industry.
You see how you needed to bring up a completely irrelevant argument about Jews and Nazis to try and pretend everyone who disagrees with you is one of them?
That's why no one likes you.
And I will not exchange one master for another, nor will I prop up one demon to slay another. Epic openly admitted in their Apple suit that they would concede on everything if given special treatment just for themselves. That is all their lawsuits matter to me, that they will cuck out the moment Google gives them an offer.

Literally no one sucks off Valve, people just hate Epic.
The same way a lot of people here hate women, they just hate you more.

While I agree with your first statement, I'd wager that Epic isn't going to any better long term and isn't worth abandoning Valve for now.
In my mind GoG is the only viable competition for Steam because they offer honest to god installers which will survive their servers going dark.
