Not single-player ones.

Incorrect.

They've had DRM in single player games on GOG. Hitman was a DRM game on GOG. Cyberpunk had a lot of DRM-lilocked items in game. They retroactively updated Witcher 3 with the same DRM crap.

because you have access to the game files and can do whatever

So long as the game is DRM free, which it isn't always on GOG anymore, yes.

Although that doesn't absolve them of lying about their intent to support Linux or their promise to open source their Galaxy client.
