I believe your confusion comes from the following line: "secureblue does not claim to be the most secure option available on the desktop."
Which is simply their acknowledgement that more secure options like Qubes OS exist. Note, however, that Qubes OS is not based on Linux, but instead on Xen.
To add onto what N.E.P.T.R said, it is technically possible to make a custom amalgamation of Bazzite with secureblue's hardening. However, it would be neither here or there. Some discussion of it can be found here. IIRC, it was ultimately deemed counter-intuitive as a gaming-distro inherently conflicts with a hardened one.
Finally, we shouldn't disregard the technical part of this; it's IIRC one of the reasons why the Bluefin-variants of secureblue were eventually disbanded. It frequently had a lot of interesting bugs that were simply not present on other secureblue-images. This isn't on Bluefin either, as the non-hardened edition worked as you'd expect.
