I'm fairly certain every platform offers an SDK with mostly the same things.
A lot of that stuff is just there to stop users from easily migrating in any case. Making mods only available inside a closed ecosystem so it's easier to charge for them and grab a cut isn't actually a good thing for instance.
There's also the fact that valve could easily offer all that and only grab like 3%. 90% of the cut is there to cover Gabens new boat purchase, not for the features.
Gabe doesn't need to buy new boats, he owns a company that builds them...
