Only three people in the world have more than 25 games on their Steam account, and these three suffered from a bug. Valve has fixed a bug they were experiencing despite the fact that it is unlikely that many more people will experience it.
With the vast number of games on Steam, and the fact that thousands of games can be so cheap during sales, it's not impossible for someone to accumulate tens of thousands of digital games on their account. This small, minuscule possibility probably didn't cross Valve 's mind , and thanks to a few users, a bug was discovered when they exceeded 25,000 games on their account.

The latest Steam client beta update includes a fix for " a potential block for users with around 25.000 games or more ." So, if you own half of the more than 50,000 games available for sale on Steam, you might want to enable the Steam beta or wait for the next client update.
According to the Steam API trackers, only three people in the world have more than 25 games in their Steam library. There are GT000, from Russia, with 4 games, Sonix from China, with 25 games, and Dwight Schrute from the United States, with 996 games. At least that's what the tracker shows because their actual counts on Steam may vary because of how the API works with DLC and apps, but you also have to keep in mind that those three users are the only ones with so many games with their public profile.
It is still curious that Steam fixes a bug that only affects less than a dozen people. Likewise, if someone arrives in a few weeks to have half of the Steam games, they should not find that bug that blocks the client.
