I did not realize they were trying to compete in the first place.

    I keep all my cds in separate cases as a better analogy

        I assure you that I use the same computer for each computer game

          But a launcher isn’t something you use for storage, that’d be your file system.

            Cd player executes the code on the cd

            Computer executes the code of the game

            Now you see how different drawers or different cd players don’t work?

            The launcher can just be the .sh file included with the game

              I can see how you’re trying to justify a bad mangling of an analogy.

              If we follow your modification of your modification of the analogy, you want physical cases for your games, which has nothing to do with launchers at all.

              Though it seems you don’t want launchers at all, you want independent executable files, which isn’t what a launcher is in this context.

                you want independent executable files

                Those are launchers, are you confusing launchers with libraries?
