To be clear, while the article says this is "official support", this is only drivers provided by valve.

Per valve:

We are providing these resources as is and are unfortunately unable to offer 'Windows on Deck' support.

Valve are working on getting SteamOS to work on the ROG Ally X so maybe they're doing this to help get SteamOS to work on windows first handhelds and make it work better across the 3rd party handheld landscape.

I don't see why this would help. More likely there are two different teams/people working on either side separately from each other. I bet the windows work involves a lot more work on Microsoft's or the chip manufacturer's side than valves.
