I suspect Valve's interest is more in pushing PC gaming as a hardware platform. You saw some of that with the Steam Link and Steam Controller. I suspect they want to resurrect the Steam Machine and sell it with Linux OEM. If they start selling a portable (like the Switch or even the 3DS), I'd buy it on day one. What all of these have in common is that they would be easier (and probably more profitable) if you can make the operating system cheaper.
