Unless they fuck it up somehow in recruiting a new CEO, Valve really wouldn't find it hard to ask a new CEO "Here's our revenue, and our expenses, our profits. How would you keep this in place without crashing our revenue stream and maybe doing new greenfield stuff?"

If their first words are: "Well, I like the idea of charging our customers an install fee..." you know to keep looking.
