Could you build this?

No It requires low-level macOS system programming, custom Wine/DirectX translation layer modifications, Metal graphics pipeline hooks, and window server interception.

What it would actually take: Requires maintaining a custom Wine fork with DirectX-to-Metal translation (DXVK-macOS/D3DMetal), writing low-level AppKit/Metal wrappers that intercept Wine render targets to apply Lanczos and MetalFX upscaling, and managing native IPC with headless Windows Steam processes.
