copy(price): the launch price ends on an event we control, not on Valve's queue

Browse Source 
The promo read 'until April 1, 2027', which is a public promise tied to a review queue outside our
control: identity verification and the tax interview are in Valve's hands (they quote up to 30 business
days), and the store page and build reviews follow. If any of that slips, the date becomes untrue.

It now reads '30 days after the store page goes live — after that $99, locked for life', in the About
box and in commercial.md, so the claim cannot be wrong however long Valve takes.

Also recorded: the $100 Steam Direct fee is PAID (creator, 2026-11-05); a store page can be configured
once identity clears. The launch-price deadline no longer depends on Valve's calendar.
