The Steam Deck is an ok PC gaming machine, but most PC games aren't optimized for console experience. There's even quite a few Windows games that don't work or have bugs on the Deck. Meanwhile all Switch games are made for that platform and there are a ton of exclusives you can't get on PC. Glad each one has a niche, but Switch is an order of magnitude (or two) more successful than the Steam Deck.
Sounds like you never tried the deck and the switch. So many games are unplayable on the switch besides nintendo official games. I dropped split fiction because it ran so horribly on the switch
