Even if it’s “SteamOS” that becomes the household name instead of “Linux” that’s still good overall. Maybe it’ll turn into how people used to say they had “Droid” smartphones, not Android.

I mean, if a single distro is what we’re after, isn’t there already ChromeOS?

ChromeOS is pretty far from normal Linux. It’s closer to something like Android. Uses the Linux kernel, but doesn’t bring the freedom, flexibility, or even GUI tool that come with a Linux desktop. SteamOS does come with all of those.

I guess I see your point, but at the same time I don’t.
