Clearly you don't know much about the steam deck if you think the switch is more versatile

For a casual user? Definitely he Switch wins here.

If you have experience in Linux it opens up a lot more possibilities on the Steam Deck, but likewise, you can technically do that on a Switch too.

What are you talking about? You can click "go to desktop mode" on your steam deck and it will bring you to a desktop.... like a normal computer...

You can't do that on a Switch, or if you can you have to be an expert DIYer.

Don't insult "casual" users by suggesting an optional desktop view where you can use your Steam Deck like a normal computer is "toooo much for the casual user". Not it isn't. The desktop view lets you use any web browser you want, lots of people need to use web browsers, that is only one example of why a "casual" user might use desktop mode on the Steam Deck.

No you way off the mark here, and so is Nintendo.

I can install Linux on a Switch. Hell, you can emulate Switch games on a Switch.

Go to desktop mode is not a "casual" feature at all. They barely know how to set the wifi connection, let alone manage a Linux environment...
