I would love to as well, if the Linux versions would boot up and run on Steam Deck. Even when I was gaming on my desktop, which is pure Arch, I remember regularly needing to edit Linux games or recompile dependencies to get them to work.
Flibitijibibo has some good commentary on when to dynamically/statically link libraries, leaning towards statically linking dependencies when possible to avoid relying on the OS too much. Coincidentally, Flibitijibibo's Linux ports are some of the few where I can just download them and be confident that they're likely going to work out of the box with zero troubleshooting.
It is a general comment about Linux. Arch Linux is a major distro, if people using Arch can't run Linux software using existing packaging systems, the packaging systems are broken.
If the natural result of existing packaging systems is that software only works on distros like Ubuntu and Fedora, then that is very much a general Linux problem.
