I didn't see anyone pointing out explicitly that this was not in native Linux games, but in Windows-native games running Proton.
When I read the headline, I thought that of course Linux will outperform Windows on native apps. It's more surprising that Linux outperforms while running the overhead of a compatibility layer.
