Reason for this meme is that some ubisoft titles are shipped with a broken version of ubisoft connect launcher. Installing these games is only possible by running the installer for the launcher again via protontricks.

Some people hate it, including some independent developers. I wouldn't mind going without it, if there was a Free Software library management alternative. I want something to track what I have installed (because I've "lost" things and reinstalled them before) and something that has a decent uninstall.
I also get some benefit from the store integration, but I can understand developers being annoyed at the 30% "steam tax". I'd gladly purchase using some other method, if I didn't have to sacrifice library functions from previous paragraph.
