To me, what makes a console a console is the console experience. As in, you should be able to navigate everything with a gamepad.

Yes. You can do that on PC. You can have steam run at startup andaunch straight into that one other mode it has. Or install steam os or bazzite etc. You don’t need a mouse and keyboard for a PC

  Yes, you can do all that. Hence why I refer to Steam Deck as a consolized PC.
  
  That said, the console experience on Windows 11 is subpar. Bazzite and SteamOS are far superior in this regard.
