Ahh, ok.

Groupees has a similar system, but not exactly the one you described. As long as you haven't revealed the product (which means you neither saw the DRM-free download nor the Steam key, you can gift or trade away the whole product.

But you can still reveal the DRM-free download and yet gift or trade the Steam/Itch.io/Humble/GOG key once you've downloaded the game. In that case you keep the DRM-free version and only the key is gone (which is more or less the same as on Humble).

The way I understand this the answers have been, yes and no. I can technically give away the games on steam and use the , but I'm technically not allowed to. I've also seen no mention of any court cases, so it isn't clearly illegal. Just very unethical.

On a side note, does anyone know how to add an extra solution to these things? The first person actually answered the question, it is technically allowed. But this actually raises an important issue of ethics. So I'd prefer to highlight that as well.

You could do it like Groupees now does.

You get the DRM-free download or the Steam key, and you have to pick for each product. You activate it according to what you want.

Humble doesn't do that - they intentionally let you have both. It's built right into the interface "gift this key to a friend". So be it.
