The short answer is in many cases it's just not worth it. Maintaining a Linux build is not free and the possible market share gain is fairly minimal. Add to that the possibility you get it for free through proton and your reasons for investing the dev effort shrink.

I've heard an argument for maintaining Linux builds because Linux users will provide better bug reports but that mindset is unlikely to ever survive in a big studio

Counter point: it's a studio who made a groundbreaking open world series (jak and daxter) who only later became known for linear games returning to their roots

I would say the original Zelda isn't, but link to the past definitely holds up. Honestly most of the 2d Zelda's from link to the past onwards are good

I get so tired of this talking point. New York times, Washington Post, and even Fox news each have an article (or multiple) on this event.
