What are you talking about? You can click “go to desktop mode” on your steam deck and it will bring you to a desktop… like a normal computer…
You can’t do that on a Switch, or if you can you have to be an expert DIYer.
Don’t insult “casual” users by suggesting an optional desktop view where you can use your Steam Deck like a normal computer is “toooo much for the casual user”. Not it isn’t. The desktop view lets you use any web browser you want, lots of people need to use web browsers, that is only one example of why a “casual” user might use desktop mode on the Steam Deck.
Switch is versatile, can be played in more than one way
Hold my beer while I connect multiple displays to the steam deck, a keyboard & mouse, xbox & playstation controllers and wii motes.
Clearly you don’t know much about the steam deck if you think the switch is more versatile
For a casual user? Definitely he Switch wins here.
If you have experience in Linux it opens up a lot more possibilities on the Steam Deck, but likewise, you can technically do that on a Switch too.

No you way off the mark here, and so is Nintendo.
The PSP was launched in 2004, could be connected to your TV and even could be used to play on the PS3, so yeah is as versatile as a touch screen PSP.
can’t even use it as a web browser because they’re too scared of exploits
they’re so scared of web exploits that they chose to castrate the JS performance of their own eshop, limiting sales of new games
