So Apple made a game porting toolkit for macOS, based on Wine like Proton is for Linux/Steam Deck and then part of the code has a license that forbids developers to ship with it - evaluation only.

What. So confused on why.

I believe it has code from crossover - a commercial product - that they've licensed to be used as part of this porting effort, not for general use. I also suspect Apple's quality requirements are a driver - a ported game is likely to be of superior quality to one that's just passed unoptimized to an emulator, because the game's developers have skin in the game.
