Wheres the point? Its their product, and they have to support the product. If i code any application and i wait 4 weeks (or more :P) until i fix anything for my customers, i can go directly to die. I never said valve didnt support their products, but the point is, how they do that. And the royal way of support is fast fixing of bugs, and if providing sdk's, updating the materials around. And currently i think Valve makes bad support. Maybe, they kicked some programmers or somethin? But as customer i didnt care about their resources, i only care about theire reaction times if i got problems ;) or?
