Honestly I think it's a stage of life thing. As I got older, got married, and had kids I found it increasingly hard to find time to play on my PC. The steam deck is perfect for short sessions you can stop and resume anytime, and I don't have to fight the kids for the TV or abandon everyone to sequester myself in the office.
I just straight up cannot do this. Either I'm spending time with family and giving them the attention they deserve. Or I'm spending time focusing on the game and the attention it needs for me to enjoy it. Multi tasking just leads to me ignoring both.
If it's a small child and you just need to make sure they're not killing themselves then I can do that. But besides that, to me it's one or the other.
