I don't think steam is the underlying problem. I am thinking it's the user in this case and here's why.
1.Downloads are not that much safe? I don't understand what that even means. It doesn't matter how you download the game. You could do 1 GB at a time. It does integrity checks as it picks up from a stopped download. Something almost every download manager does.
2.PC heating up? If your PC is overheating from downloading a game, that's one of those check your airflow because I think you are doing it wrong. It's not the programs fault?
ANYWAYS. These are really your options.
