What's wrong with proton and steam?

They use xwayland. They are not native wayland applications.

Is that a problem? I've been using them just fine in a wayland session for ages now.

Yes, it makes them have more latency issues amongst other small things.

It's not a big deal, but I want x11 fully gone from my system, it's legacy cruft that I no longer have any need for except to run these few things.
