The valve time distortion bubble is real unfortunately. Thankfully it finally caught up.
I remember Steam Friends existed for a long ass time before TF2, but then they removed the service (like the tab was still there but it no longer connected to anything) for years and then when the orange box dropped, it also came with a massive update to Steam's social stuff and gave us back Friends but also added Groups.
It always seems like they are working on these massive updates/changes/new things but not even rolling them out until it's 100% finished instead of just adding things like 1 feature at a time. Which is weird, to me, because one of the defining things about Valve is their level of iteration. You'd think Steam would just constantly be evolving every other week as they try and test things on the general public and yet... They don't. They're like the only ones that don't.
Valve employees are given time to work on self selected projects. I'm guessing that leads to more new projects than people taking over maintenance of existing projects.
