Is this more a problem with the publisher and not Steam? I don't imagine Steam dictates what is and isn't a 'linked' game. I would think the publisher has the final say on what gets a new store-page. I'm curious what page the author reached to purchase the game itself.

Well yes sort of but also:

A) Steam is allowing that metadata to be set like that;

B) Steam is requiring the download prior to review

Which in combination is what's not working. So to fix:

A) Steam can disallow metadata being set in such ways; or

B) Steam can consider all the weird and wonderful allowed metadata combinations when checking for (among other things) download before review.
