As someone who hasn’t yet migrated their gaming PC to linux, does this mean that third-party games imported into steam should work automatically? No flags or config adjustments?

If so, will it choose specific Proton versions for known games or pick a default (latest, I presume) version for all of them?

You can just add them and start them. If it doesnt work immediately, you can look at protondb which solution works best.

Just in time for my new nvme drive so I can fully segregate windows and Linux after that mf broke my install again

Yeah that's what I did but Windows will insert itself to the top of boot entries in UEFI anyway lol

Install Windows on a separate SATA drive so you can remove it later without repartitioning. Also it is easier to boot, just change boot drive on startup.
