It kind of does matter, from what I understand. nVidia's closed-source laptop chip drivers were apparently a huge headache for Linux gaming.

Yep, and they're still quite troublesome. But installing Nvidia drivers is not the only problematic aspect of an immutable distro, so it doesn't matter at all if Bazzite makes it easy as far as my point goes.
