I believe it means base price and not sale prices. It’s fine for a game to go on sale for lower than Steam, but the base price can’t be $60 Steam $50 Epic as an example.
Doesn’t explain all the other games sold for cheaper than steam when you take a look at isthereanydeals. Or the bundles fanatical offers with no charity involved.

That is also allowed, but not if Epic purchase allows you to play the game on steam too
Humble Bundle has a special relationship with Valve iirc, because of the charity work they do.

Could be secondhand key resellers who have no deals with Steam regarding sales.
