What makes you think you wouldn’t be able to load a different Linux distro on this box? Sounds like it’s just a PC with steam OS pre-installed. Or are you just against an OS being pre-installed?
I mean the hardware is a cool toy but everyone else here is excited for the software that will be available and accessible elsewhere. Gotta be honest sounds like you just want to hate it lol which more power to you but you’re not really making sense to me. 🤷
You are on lemmy, a decentralized and open source platform that doesn’t share much with steam or corporations like valve. If you understand the difference between lemmy and steam perhaps what i’m saying will make more sense to you.

And soldered parts that you cannot swap easily (not only hardware problems, proprietary firmwares can cause compatibility problems too)
