And it does not encourage ports. We're totally off topic now, but what the hell.. You wanna encourage ports? Write a step by step guide on how to most easily port a modern game from Windows to Linux. My suggestion would be to use winelib and include all the workarounds needed to make the game compatible with the DirectX support in wine. As far as I'm aware, there is no such guide, so if a games company was to decide to port their game to Linux (for whatever whacky reason) they wouldn't even know how much work they have ahead of them.
