MODERATORS
What people describe as "OLED burn-in" isn't comparable at all to what you say "LCD burn-in" is (which doesn't really exist in a permanent way). LCDs are way more durable than even modern OLEDs, it's not even comparable to be honest.
That being said, it's improved over the early days as you said and I doubt the average Steam Deck OLED will have problems over its normal lifespan. I still wouldn't recommend OLED for heavy office use though, as you'll be able to see degradation within months of first use.
