It's not Valves style to do that. They normally do "one thing" that pushes the envelope forward and then wait for the 3rd parties to take over.
The steam box (or whatever their prebuilt pcs were called) made proton, so now Linux gaming is viable. The steam controller paved the way for their controller framework, now you can play any steam game with any controller. The steam link paved the way for their streaming tech, now you can do it with any android device.
This might be another case where they just let 3rd parties take over after showing them how it's done.
