Obviously because no one's prepared a PC port for Steam

I believe there's some sort of entanglement with the original PC versions of those games, because they were made for some japanese PC platform (NeXT, I think?), and not all the rights of those versions pertain to CAPCOM.
Also, zero interest.

You're mixing things up. "Sourcenext" were the devs who did the jap-only DVD re-release of the PC versions of BH2 and BH3; but they didn't even make the original PC versions to begin with.

I am 99% positive Capcom published themselves all the PC versions of RE/BH though, at least in most countries. The RE3 PC release I have here only has the name of Capcom on it. There is no way they'd lose publishing rights to their own games, even on one platform.

They probably don't think it's worth the effort to re-release them. Consider this, when they made the HD re-releases of REmake and 0, they felt they HAD to add a tacked-on 16/9 mode and to ruin the gameplay with camera centric controls "for modern standard".
They probably think nobody cares about this "outdated shit" anymore. Yes, they re-released Megaman 1-6 on Steam, but that was only after the success of Megaman 9 and 10...

So it was Sourcenext. My bad.
There are some CAPCOM games on PC that were published by others, and only in a select few countries. IIRC, the PC versions of Megaman X7, X8, Megaman Legends 1 & 2 (yeah, there are PC versions of those) are only available in South Korea.
>>
>>3693008
Yeah but only in specific cases for specific countries. Even then it might not even prevent them to re-release them themselves, even in those country.

Because they need to release RE4 for the sixteenth time.
