Valve does, they literally have teams dedicated to the work.
Also, do you guys not have re-occuring donations going out to your favorite open source projects every month?
Relying on Proton just offloads development/optimization to the community instead of the actual developers getting paid to develop it. Sure it’s cool the game runs better. But like pay people to do that.

If it gets a proper market share and can’t be ignored, developers will be more inclined to take care of it themselves. A lot of games come already working on it.

I guess my question is why pay people to solve a problem two ways?
We have an increasingly functional way to play on two platforms with a single build. I’d love to have both for completeness, but as long as Proton is actively being worked on, I feel like that’s good enough and will certainly not hold back gaming on Linux for years to come.
