Quoting: StellaI thought I read something somewhere about the 64-bit client being unable to launch 32-bit games?

PCGamingwiki says this about the Linux client:
User requests for a native 64-bit client have been denied by Valve on numerous occasions since 2014, purportedly since such a client would be unable to launch 32-bit games.
I wouldn't think so. Your 64 bit environment is able to start 32 bit Steam, why would the chain break if one more application is 64 bit?

Thank you for helping to keep GamingOnLinux civil and safe!
