"We've been told our games are too expensive in some countries but we've been using Steam's recommended pricing for a while. We trust Valve enough to not change this. If our games are still too expensive for you, you can pirate them until you have enough to support us."

A house isn't software, it's more like getting handled the blueprints of the building. They already have access to the property what's the difference if they have the blueprints or not

If it's the same, why do you care?

Of course it's not the same.

Without the source code there's no way to know what you are running, ever heard of a spyware named red shell?

I would also like to compile my own binaries for my own system
