MODERATORS
Taking a high cut is the opposite of anti-competitive, that makes it easier for competitors to offer a better deal
...unless you have a policy that requires other marketplaces to sell at the same price as on Steam, undercutting the ability for "better deals" to exist at all.

Steam has such a policy. Valve may remove any games from Steam which are sold on other marketplaces for less than they are on Steam.
