While this is true, I feel a loss for the familiarity of going to a website, downloading an executable, and running it without worry. I still do that with most of my software. In fact, that's how I got steam.

I don't think anyone is arguing that because there is an option to install via Steam that people should stop downloading directly from Godot's website though. Both of those things can exist beside one another.

Sure. Like I said originally, it's there for discoverability and popularity.
