Steam has been releasing Linux based hardware and driving generic Linux support since 2015, if it hasn't been worthwhile for the last 7 years it seems an error to bet on the next new thing catching on this time before it's even released.

Even assuming Steam Deck (which is what I think you really meant) is an absolutely roaring constant success then they still realistically have a couple of years before it'd really be a significant chunk anyways. That's ignoring the whole premise of their other development, Proton, which is about running the Windows games on such systems anyways.
