How is it walled garden when you can add any non-steam game to your library?

You're thinking in reverse. Walled gardens keep you in, not out. Without logging into your Steam account (pretending you don't have one), try to download a mod for a game you bought on GOG and see how it goes for you.

I have seriously no idea, but can you take them out easily? If not, it's a walled garden.
