No reason to use SteamOS, it's just immutable Arch with an A/B partition scheme. Modern SteamOS is designed specifically for the Steam Deck and they only ship it as a recovery image for the Deck.
You can install Steam on whatever distribution you want, I use the Flatpak, and just enable Proton in the compatibility settings.
