> To be a true alternative to Electron one must provide a simple migration path for existing Electron apps to Proton Native which would change everything in cross-platform desktop app development.

That only makes it an increasingly attractive alternative for those who already have an app built on Electron, and has little to do with whether Proton is a “true alternative”. If it can viably permit developing an app without Electron, it’s a true alternative. How easy it is to migrate an app from Electron is a separate matter.
