@gamingonlinux I agree with you. The desktop mode on a Steam Deck is great and easy to use. This is a failed point in the article.
But what I'm saying is: reading their entire post, the desktop mode is the smallest point. They are mostly saying that if you want to install games outside the Steam library, the Ally is better. And this is true.
I love my Steam Deck, but handling it with other launchers is always a pain.
