Is a lawsuit by Wolfire game more credible?

Yes, that's much more credible - thank you for sharing that. This part in particular is concerning:
I wasn't able to find any instances of Steam actually de-listing a game because it was listed cheaper elsewhere, but a credible threat to do so is almost as bad (possibly worse, really, since such a threat hints that Steam might have used other underhanded tactics when dealing with game devs). I wasn't able to find any more recent news on the case, but hopefully we'll learn if the issue was that particular Account Manager + lack of oversight or something more.
