Yeah duh. A real gaming PC you'd want to hook up to your 4k TV would need to have a GPU, not just an APU. Also, having to install everything yourself kind of defeats the purpose. Do you think the Steam Deck would have been successful if it had shipped with Windows?
A lot ship with Linux. And having a full PC you can use is a downside? So you'd rather have a limited box? That's not even valves philosophy, so I don't know where you're getting that BS from.
I didn't say anything of the kind.
