I am so fucking tired of this discussion.

Go, go, look through this list.
With the exception of a few proprietary ACs, or just ancient ones...
Nearly every single AC has at least one, if not multiple, or even many instances of properly working on a game that runs on linux.
EAC and BattlEye have supported linux for 3 years now.
3 years.
Gonna be 4 in a couple months.
Its part of the liscensing that game studios pay for, they offer and support making builds that work on linux via Proton, offer to help game devs with any tweaks they may need to make.
This is, and has for years, just been as simple as management is telling devs not to bother with the fairly minor effort it would take to do this, at least with EAC and BattleEye.
AC works on linux, it doesn't need to finger fuck your kernel to do so.
Its just that most game developers (lets be real, their upper management / C Suite), only want to fully go in raw, or not at all, and Windows is giving it up on the reg.
