this sounds like just throwing your money away. I think it definitely takes the cake for weird/interesting habits.
I agree, it costs nothing to not delete them, and if they ever added a framework later on for reselling or trading, you’re just out money.
Not to mention if you wrote a review for any of the games, I’m expect deleting the game from your library unmarks the game as you owning it, which means that your review no longer contributes to the game’s rating.

We all throw money away, everyday. It is a matter of how much money we throw away and whether or not it served a positive purpose or gives us buyer’s remorse. I think it is twice as wasteful to not only throw your money away but never even once use the thing you’ve thrown money away for. I don’t force myself to play games or I’m never enjoying it as it was meant to be.

I just simply do not want them in my library as listed. Is that really too much to ask for? People are allowed to have preferences. The whole point isn’t to negate the loss of money, it is simply accepting it as a loss and doing what personally feels right in how to go about dealing with that acceptance.
I don’t think we’ll ever see such a system without publishers and even developers crying about lost profits, least in the US.

To date, out of the 622 games in my library, 400 of them have had reviews written for them.
I fully understand not wanting them in the library. How I go about it is I have a category that’s called finished, and when I finish a game, I remove them from all categories, except for finished, and then I hide/collapse that category. Alternatively, you can also filter by installed games.
I have a review for most of the games that I’ve played, but almost none of them actually count towards the game score because Steam has a really stupid way of deciding if a review actually counts or not. basically, for a review to count, you have to own the game or have refunded the game(I’m nit sure if deleting the game counts as refunding). And it must have been purchased directly through Steam. and it has to meet whatever Automated metrics they have in the background to decide whether or not it’s a bot review or not.
I’ve had fully valid games that I purchased through Steam just not get included in the review system because something I sent in the review triggered some form of abuse system.
