First of all, people seem to forget that if GOG dies you won't be able to download anything too.What if Steam went out of business?
Second, Fallout and Arcanum are DRM free on Steam. meaning you can download them, archive them, store them somewhere and play from any machine. Much better actually than having to deal with installers from GOG.
I would call them being portable, but they probably store some info in the user folders, so technically they aren't.
In summary, what I want to say is that a lot of games on Steam actually don't require Steam to run, but most people won't even try to check that and Valve doesn't want to promote this feature for some reason.
