It’s easier to source a screen with a particular size that has standard resolution.

The steamdeck has a super awkward resolution that doesn’t fit into any standard aspect ratio. Which creates problems with some games.

If you want to play games on a lower resolution for performance reasons, you can always just to that. Games don’t need to run on the native resolution.

Playing a lower resolution on a screen that has a higher one will generally also make the image look nicer, as the DPI is higher. (just be careful and don’t scale to some weird fractional scales)
