It's already as easy to access them as it is on any other Linux OS. It's not valve's fault epic has no official Linux launcher. You can already add non-steam shortcuts to the steam os side easily, this is not on valve to fix

When Epic drops a Linux launcher, it will probably be forced to easily include those store fronts just as the EU forces those things now upon Apple and Microsoft.

.. but you would then just install them if you want them. Do you own a steam deck?

Yes I know, just as you could just install a different browser on Windows, but because it's shipping Edge by default, it needs to also provide easier access to the other browsers. Guys, I'm not making up those laws, I'm not fighting for them, I just share the way it works.
