The author raises some good questions about the licensing of the core utils. Why the MIT license? Why not stick to GNU GPL?

Bazzite has a couple of non-gaming sisters: Bluefin (gnome) and Aurora (KDE). ~~Like Tumbleweed~~ they're immutable so you can't mess with the stuff they keeps it running which is why it just works.

FWIW Tumbleweed isn't immutable. It's a rolling release. MicroOS is the official openSUSE immutable release, but it's server oriented. Kalpa is immutable openSUSE for desktop, but still in development.

The separate Aeon desktop project is immutable and more mature, and also focused on desktop usage. With Gnome.
