What would a "native" streaming client offer over the web version? Especially since any such "native" client would more than likely just be an Electron-packaged webpage anyway...

Simply put, ease of use. They could package more Xbox-related stuff in there, like messaging or whatever. But literally just create it as a downloadable application through Steam itself. I'd assume perhaps the value isn't really there for MS, but it would give an easier access to their platform.
