In truth I'm really tired of needing multiple launchers/storefronts in general,

Really, this is the big thing for me. A couple months ago I made a point of cataloguing every game I own for the sake of getting a definite handle on my backlog, and it was a pretty substantial ordeal to document everything I had on PC because I had multiple storefronts to sift through. I've mostly managed to avoid purchasing duplicate games (the only one I know of off the top of my head was buying Volgarr the Viking for like $2.50 on Steam when I'd gotten it in a Humble Bundle a few months prior), but it's still hard to keep track of what I have when I have multiple libraries to consider, and that's resulted in dozens of games I do want to play going unplayed because I just forget I have them.

I'm still taking advantage of Epic's free games, and have amassed a sizable library (~290 games) just from those, but I'd really prefer to stick to just one platform to actually buy games on as much as possible (GOG gets some business by simple virtue of selling games nobody else does, and Humble purchases almost always activate on Steam anyway). Where so much of my library is already on Steam, Epic would have to offer a significantly better client than Steam to get me to switch over to them. Their client is pretty clearly worse, though (even with the improvements they've made), so that's not happening any time soon.
