This might sound like a good idea. But it is not, since lets say some topic is too sensitive for the payment processor, then they have monopoly on what game can and can not be allowed on Steam.

So in the long run, this is a bad idea.

This doesn't sound like a good idea in any way. Why the fuck do banks get to say how my money is used? They can literally eat my shit.

I 100% agreed. BUt maybe some people thought it sounded like a good idea.
