Right, but it’s a different distro than the one being referred to here. I know because I made the same mistake.
That one is based on Debian and has existed since 2013. The version on Steam Deck is Arch-based immutable and has not been publicly released yet.

The current Arch-based immutable SteamOS distro is and has been publicly available for years.
Like the wiki says:
So OK sure, but you can literally only use it on the Steam Deck which already comes with it pre-installed.
