It literally is a gaming computer. Its design prioritizes gaming applications at every turn, from the form factor to the unusually low-resolution display to the gaming-oriented features of the (default) operating system. It's optimized to provide the best portable PC gaming experience at its price point, and due to the fundamental power/heat constraints of the "deck" form factor it's pretty close to the point of diminishing returns regardless of how much you want to spend. Ultralight laptops can match or exceed it in [burst] performance, but that's table stakes. They aren't designed for gaming, and if you try to play games on one you will understand that very quickly.
