I’m not going to debate the failiure or success of the SD.

But to me SD lacks one of the main features of PC gaming, KB+M.

But then someone will say: ”Het Spindel, it is a PC you can connect a KB+M”

To which I say: Then it becomes very much stationary and I might as well spend the same amount of money on a better computer.

Many good things have been said about the steam-deck's trackpad so far. That seems to have been a priority for Valve. 

And why does it become stationary with a keyboard and mouse? You can carry all three and wherever you go use the keyboard and mouse. Or your destination could have a keyboard and mouse. For example, my coworkers and I have all reserved steam decks. I can imagine us all connecting our steam decks to our keyboards and mice at work and playing games during breaks.

The portability of a steam deck is still much better than that of my gaming laptop (which weighs 3 times as much) or desktop (obviously.) 

It just doesn't seem like handhelds (in general) are for you. Which makes sense. All products have their demographics.
