Does this apply to developer accounts? Because if so this would be dumb as fuck.

I'd argue that it's dumb as fuck either way.

Does steamworks not have a notion of a parent organization or enterprise? That’s what most other design and development tools do.

If someone leaves, the parent enterprise remains, and new people can be added to the enterprise and can be granted rights over the content.
