That's basically it. The part I don't understand is why Chinese would gravitate towards Windows while their government sees it as a US intelligence tool. I hear that most of them pirate it too.

Maybe the Steam Deck isn't readily available on the Chinese market.

Because a lot of them are into games that require anti-cheat and there are also a lot more internet cafes, so more windows.
