Yes, this is downside.

Gog is quite contend with just Ubuntu being supported; they are not that different.

Not sure whether that is the only reason why some games are not on Gog though; often Mac ports are missing too. It seems more like missing rights for the ports than technical reasons.

I don't know; probably not. But this was the response I got back from the devs of "Expeditions: Conquistador" when I asked if they could release the Linux version on GOG (when I bought it originally I still had a Windows machine).
