I think it’s hilarious with the market for Linux handhelds this hot that these companies are still like “ew no thanks”

I don't think the technical details reach the people making the decisions. They may have heard "Steam Deck works with PC games" (because there is no distinction between PC and Windows for them) and then don't allocate resources for a proper port to Steam Deck.
