I'm talking about how the smartphone would control a 3D printer. How would it do that?

Looking at it the steam deck is an Nintendo Switch competitor, similar specs but you are limited to Steam vs Nintendo ecosystem.
Nobody should have expected more out of that, a cell phone has a similar size but better screen, faster processing and could run AAA games if storage or licensing wasn't an issue.(caveat of course is a cell phone is double the price), but they don't have the built in convenience of a dedicated portable console with real controls. (And again the Steam library is more vast)
Complaining about the consoles limits are superficial considering the cost and the intended audience.

Bro, the ps2 had GTA 3. The switch runs Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey.

Because people want the steam deck to be super successful so they can only praise it or else they're a sellout!
Seriously, people act like the steam deck is going to be the Switch killer, meanwhile Nintendo is producing more switches now then they had in recent years XD

Yeah that's true, I think on top of that. The cool thing about it is you can play previous games from older console generations on it. I think that's at least half of the sell right there. Better than the switch's new Pokemon game graphics too!

Ryzen 7 3700x here. It runs most things fairly well, but I should prolly retire it and just throw it into the makeshift PC.

They probably just saw a couple pixel games and went "The switch looks like shit." The switch even in handheld is 720p and 1080p docked. The PS2 did 480p MAX. There might not be a difference in their eyes. Anything not 4k60FPS is garbage to some people

The key part is to 'act in the best interests of [the company]'. Maybe loss leaders helps build the user base, or helping another company means building a future portfolio that spreads the influence of the company. Both of these would be seen as a death sentence if "maximize profit" was the only goal.
It could be argued that killing the company for a single quarter's highest profits could be seen as an act against the best interests of the company, but proving that can be impossible (unless the person in charge ends up parachuting out immediately afterwards, and even then they would have to have some hard proof against them.)
