Hence the use of the word "can" and not "are"

Valve wouldn't exist at it is if it was public and might not exist as it is if it wasn't for Newell (and I say that as a person that's very critical of Valve, they're still very far from how bad they could be considering their position)

I see, that's valid then, and I agree that Valve isn't some godsend charity, it just happens to work better than the rest for us buyers
