All this would do if I developed in Unreal would give me a second marketplace to release on, which turns people salty about Steam for whatever reason into increased profit for me.
Because licensing fee or not, lesser take or not, if you're an indie dev and you have access to Steam's users, you damn well go for it. The install base alone would bring in orders of magnitude more cash than Epic's storefront.
