They do require that the price of your game on Steam be equivalent or lower than the price outside of it. That’s very anticompetitive, and IMO should be illegal as it doesn’t do anything but harm consumers.

As far as I know, there is nothing in the Distribution Agreement saying that and you can in fact regularly see games sold for less on GOG than Steam. The only thing Valve disallows selling outside of Steam for less than on Steam are Steam keys.
