I know that's a turn-of-phrase but it's their game so they can do what they want.

It probably trips some EAC flag because it realizes something is "amiss". Id guess going through proton might behave a little differently and they think you are cheating or installing hacked dlls or something so they ban.

I know when other games have caught a wave of Linux users in bans they reverse them in time.

If someone buys a product from you, you shouln’t be able to deny them from using it based on arbitrary criteria without a refund.

Don’t worry, they refunded his $0 for the free game.
