There is a setting under compatibility in Steam's preferences that allows all Windows games to install with Proton. Without it, Valve won't give you the download option unless they're 100% certain it will run perfectly. This excluded many games that run fairly well, and a bunch of games that run perfectly but haven't been properly assessed yet.
