I wouldn't say it's a complete disservice. They made the Steam Deck. And while it's just a fancy GUI (Steam in Game Mode or whatever it's called), that's exactly what people need for it to become mainstream. Besides, if it wasn't for Valve's Proton and Wine, I wouldn't be using Linux as a daily driver today And they (as far as I know, take this with a grain of salt) pioneered the Handheld gaming space (and before you say Nintendo or PSP. They were different than the Steam Deck or the ROG Ally)
