making browser only games claimable now

I would say this is probably a bug. There is no reason to “claim” a browser based game, it has no effect since all browser games are publicly available at this time. If the developer provides downloadable content at a later time then it will follow the same flow as every other downloadable game. Doing this ahead of time is unnecessary and confusing since the “download key” page would be empty. Why do you consider this a benefit?

I use Playnite to organise my games and keep track of the ones I own, and the itchio extension will only import games from itchio if either a) i've claimed them, or b) they're installed through the itchio app. So it's either claim the browser only game, or install the browser only game, both of which sound equally "unnecessary and confusing". :P
