The non-handheld will likely be pricier than the handheld, due to the beefier specs. You may as well just buy one now.

idk about that - integrated buttons, battery, screen, size constraints and the R&D work that goes into all of that is probably significant compared to 'box with hardware and usb ports' (oversimplifying to make a point here though - of course lots of design work went into this as well).

Oled screen in particular is literally same screen used in oled nintendo switch (1st gen). This is a good thing, better reuse, lowet costs.

Doesn't the switch have a smaller screen than the deck?

They are not the same: the OLED Switch has a 1280x720 7" screen, the OLED Steam Deck's is 1280x800 7.4".
