Whole bunch of people are missing that Valve is not a hardware company, nor a game dev studio. Valve is Steam. They are making SteamDeck, so Linux gaming gains traction, Valve keeps a card against M$, who wants to make Xbox Store the exclusive Windows gaming platform. MS tries their hand, Valve pulls from Windows, taking whole bunch of customers with them.
Steam Machines, Proton or Steam Deck was never about gaining market share. If whole bunch of brands made their own Linux handheld, Valve would be so goddamn happy.
