As long as there's idiots buying them they will keep releasing closed hardware/software consoles
The good thing was that so far they're consoles have been hacked for home brew for nearly 2 decades now.
As much as I would like that, majority of steam deck users don't care it's mostly open, and that would make finding vulnerabilities to allow pirating easier, which companies hate for no good reason. And there is all that iderto drm switch stuff floating around They have little reason to open it sadly, which will always make the steam deck a better option in my opinion
