I saw the post on Reddit, and I was a little shocked. When I switched to Linux on my primary computer, it was like Steam automatically filtered out the games I didn't like. I immediately spent some money on other games with Linux support.

So, there's a market, and it seems to be getting larger over time. What's troubling to me is that the Vivox employee seemed to think the developer just didn't know that Linux was a smaller market, or hadn't bothered to make a rational decision.

Then again, I also play things like Adventure, and the odd round of Lemmings.
