Why not build a Ncase M1 form factor gaming PC (or other mini-itx), download steam on Mac and PC, and use Steam’s local streaming to play on Mac while being powered by the PC?
Alternatively, gaming laptop. I’m missing the use case of the Steam Deck except in the event of a budget crunch, since you can get ultraportable 14” gaming laptops that have good oompf - examples being the Asus G14 and the Razer Blade 14.

Generally speaking, I'd just as soon build my $6k+ gaming desktop. I honestly probably would have already done so if it weren't for such severe parts availability issues and my refusal to give money to scalpers.
