Reading this made me realize how common this is among modern "free" to use communities. Steam doesn't directly charge us any money to use Steam, only for games. Thus, there is no direct fiscal consequence for showing lower quality games. As long as they have games people want that you can't get elsewhere or have some quality overall, people will use it.
It reminds me of when Facebook was testing a redesign of the site. Users reported how much they liked it, and Facebook found that users had an easier time navigating around. But this also reduced the amount of time users stayed on Facebook, by quite a lot, so they never went forward with the new design.
