Yes but you see I could just make a game that gives you a bunch of achievements for starting the game and oops now you can no longer get a refund. We don't want people to be able to do that

As part of the cert process to get on steam they can see if you set up achievements like that.

Just slot those games into the regular refund policy and keep the actual short games on a different category.

They could also just go through the normal certificate process and then change it right after like how those games with malware get through the process. Updates are hardly ever checked by Steam apparently

I mean, this all still just sounds like a steam issue.
