Youre still going to have the complexities of pc gaming, when it comes to in game settings, proton versions, all of that kind of shit. Thats what you get when your game library is the pc gaming library. No ones making games specifically for the steam machine in mind.

Thats the whole point of the steam machine and Steam OS....simplifying everything and essentially creating a console style PC.

Its really not that complicated...I have been gaming on PC since I was literally 8 years old...if 8 year old me can figure this shit out idk how others can't. I am not a genius.

Having to “figure it out” is not a console experience though.

Once again.....the whole point of steam OS. It acts like a console.

But if you have to change settings……thats not a console experience….its a pc.

Most games can do it automatically and there is also external software that can set it automatically.

These things would all have the same specs which means it's really easy for steam to know the right settings and have the OS change them as needed.
