    # Steam runs in a nixpak sandbox (hardening/nixpaks/steam.nix) that the
    # home manager installs, so `programs.steam` is off: its `package` option
    # calls `.override` on whatever it is given, which a sandbox script cannot
    # answer, and it would install a second, unsandboxed steam plus `steam-run`.
    # What is kept from it: 32-bit graphics, which the game sandboxes mount as
    # /run/opengl-driver-32, and the controller/VR udev rules. Dropped with it:
    # `extest` (needs /dev/uinput, which no sandbox gets) and the host

    # sandbox carries one instead).
