Games blocked for purchase in the country
Why is it that if the game is blocked in my country, I can't access its page for purchase? Block only the purchase option itself. Moreover, links can still get you to discussions about the game and the like.

If a game cannot be purchased in a region, then it makes sense that you cannot access its store page.

For some games/countries it has to do with the laws of the countries. For example explicit nsfw games are not allowed to be advertised to minors in Germany, that includes the store page.

In this case, I mean that the game is not banned in my country, and this is the desire of the developer. But even if I have it, I still can't get to the game page.

In that case Valve has to comply with copyright law. If a developer has not authorized their content for a certain region Valve cannot legally exhibit it there.

The case I used as an example means the complete opposite.

So the crux of the matter is that you can still buy the game without left accounts and other points. You just need to purchase a key that can be activated in my country. At the moment, it's not the lack of steam purchase options that annoys me more, but the lack of access to the game page when I already have one.

And ultimately the problem is this. You want to see store pages for games you can't buy. The next person is mad that they can see store pages of games they can't buy, "Why show us? Are you taunting us?"

And some people will want a setting to configure. And some people will want magic. Some people will want Valve to 'force' the developer to sell the game.

Well you can't please everyone. Someone is going to be unhappy. Who should it be?

I'm explaining that it doesn't really matter if I can see games that I can't buy. I want to at least see the pages of all the games that I have on my account.

That is exactly the point. The game isn't banned, advertising it is. Some keysellers for whatever reason don't worry about legal issues, some may have a better age verification - Steams age verification isn't enough to comply with respective laws and they do respect that laws, thus they cannot show the store pages.

Circumventing purchasing restrictions doesn't change anything. So don't hold your breath.

You wouldn't go to a brick and mortar store and ask why they don't have products they're not allowed to sell on the shelves. It's the same principle. Everything you see on the Steam store is meant to get you to buy a game you're interested in. Putting something you can never interact with there wastes space.
