Why doesn't he just put the game up for free as an option then?

I don't think Steam supports any sort of sliding scale system and they have a price parity rule which would be broken by offering it elsewhere

You can offer the game elsewhere for less / free, you just can't sell steam keys for less than you sell them on steam.
