Shower thought: Valve could do the ultimate boss-move this year (discuss.tchncs.de)

If Valve really wanted to make a splash, they could release a desktop version of SteamOS in October, right when support for Windows 10 ends. For additional damage, they could bundle in Half-Life 3. Just imagine the coverage this would get.

It's not simply "some strange reason". There will be a lot of press coverage when they release a desktop version so naturally they want it to be as good an experience as possible. They may not ever get another chance for that kind of coverage after all, and they wouldn't want SteamOS's reputation to be damaged (again) because it wasn't good enough for most people to use (again).

The other distros I already mentioned are already more than "good enough for most people to use". So I disagree.
