There's something called the "steam achievement manager" which, as far as I know, is allowed by steam. Let's you just tell it what achievements you've earned and then steam reflects that.
It kinda makes all achievements meaningless, but if you are the type that can't be satisfied with a game until it's 100% unlocked, then perhaps this is for you.
And asb a note I recal dev/pubs have the ability to set up achievements in that way...but they do not because they know that that having that 100% is gonna get people to buy the dlc that normally wouldn't.
If you want 100%, then you do 100%, including all the content that comes later - be it free or in a paid DLC. Simple as. There is no issue with how Steam handles achievements. You either have done ALL the content in a game or you have not.
I am a completionist and I find it completely fair that one needs to do ALL the content in a game to get 100%. You know what I find unfair? Those who want to "cheat" and manipulate the system to pretend to have done 100% of a game's content when they really haven't done 100% of a game's content. You know, maybe Steam should get involved and make sure people can't cheat like that.
Here's another point to ponder, why should someone get to have 100% for a game without the DLC content when someone else got a true 100% by doing it with all the extra content?

Just because YOU feel 100% requires DLC doesn't mean others do, sadly. Them's the facts.
If you have not done the DLC, you have not 100% completed the game.
That's the facts.
The DLC counts as game content too, so refusing to do it means you have not done all of the games content.
Payday 2 is predictable for having DLCs, making DLCs, and still making DLCs. So any 100%-achievement-hunter should avoid games that frequently get DLC historically if they want to 100% it. Else, to wait until a game is declared done/no longer receiving updates.
That said, if you don't want to 100% a game, you don't need to make excuses for why you "actually 100%ed it if you squint". You can just not 100% it. Nobody is forcing you to complete every achievement except yourself. You can just set a personal goal of completing the achievements you want to complete instead.
Make it make sense people.
Taken out of Wiki: "Downloadable content (DLC) is additional content created for an already released video game, distributed through the Internet by the game's publisher. It can be added for no extra cost or as a form of video game monetization, enabling the publisher to gain additional revenue from a title after it has been purchased, often using a microtransaction system."
The only thing that keeps me from 100%ing a game, is monetization. You're telling me that after i complete AC Odyssey i have to buy a DLC for HALF the price of the main game to get access to content that will get me those achievements? You either have to bootlick major corporations or be out of your mind to agree with this. DLCs should not be a pay wall that stops me from showing off games that i have 100%. They should be extra content that i can buy, and add achievements related to them to the main game, but only after i bought it.
Achievement section should be separated into: Main game, DLC section 1, 2, 3.....
If i do all the achievements of the base game, i want my badge, regardless of the DLCs.
Those DLC are still part of the game.
Many times the DLC will extend the main story.
So by not doing the DLC, you have not 100% the game.
You dont get to claim you have 100% a game when you havent done everything the game has to offer.
Books are not the same.
You are using the wrong thing for compare to.
The full game is inclusive of dlc, if you want to be deemed a trophy hunting completionist otherwise you are manipulating the data to appear to be one.
An example you gave was Assassins Creed Odyssey and 70% which is correct because you do not have the dlc therefore the achievement stat is correctly reflecting what you did with regard to that game.
The second book is a sequel, the dlc.
