Well, some will want to dock it as well and use it as a computer with a keyboard and mouse. I think that's a major use.

Its a major use, but only for a niche number of people. I think theres Very, very, very few people that would get this that dont already have a main computer and/or a laptop, so the usage of this as a portable computer, while very cool and interesting, is not going to be what millions of people are doing

And that market already does essentially the same thing (sans gaming) with tablet + keyboard stand/case and portable mouse.

And both a tablet set up like that and the steamdeck, depending on use case, is significantly cheaper.
