The Steam Deck models itself much more after handhelds and consoles, anyway.

Sure, you're not getting The Most Detail And Power Available Right This Moment, but having a stable target for developers means getting a healthy library for players. It builds value for the customer, who won't want to swap out consoles super frequently to keep up with devs who'll stop targeting old hardware.
