Guy modded his steam deck be as small as possible, with the only intended use to be to play with an external controller and AR glasses.

VR has to render the game twice to give you depth perception, which is a big part of the increased resource requirements.

This isn't trying to do that, it's only displaying the game once. The effect of the glasses is supposed to be like having a TV a few feet in front of you.
