Valve's solution appears to be to have a "trusted mode" which rejects modifications. This is obviously a minimal barrier for malicious code, but it can reject benign code (eg Discord's in game layout).
Thus, they expect that the average user is likely to only be running "average" things like Discord and the graphics driver, which should be using the benign way of injecting themselves rather than breaking into trusted mode.
