Valve isn't public, but they seem to be making plenty off of WINE. In fact, companies of all types love building on other projects, because it reduces how much work they need to do.

They just don't seem to care. They could literally hire someone who works on Heroic to make an official Galaxy port reusing most of Heroic's functionality. Yet they don't.
