Let's say it's not true, Valve can choose to release a distro that is mostly-complete and add additional features later or they can update it in secret for some strange reason while sitting on it...?
It's not simply "some strange reason". There will be a lot of press coverage when they release a desktop version so naturally they want it to be as good an experience as possible. They may not ever get another chance for that kind of coverage after all, and they wouldn't want SteamOS's reputation to be damaged (again) because it wasn't good enough for most people to use (again).
The other distros I already mentioned are already more than "good enough for most people to use". So I disagree.
