Valve seems to be testing ARM64 and Android support on Steam, as per a new SteamDB leak. Popular titles like Left 4 Dead 2 and Garry's Mod are being tested with "proton-arm64" tags, among others. This could hint towards new future Valve hardware running on ARM64 architecture.
Hopefully they start supporting ARM64 on platforms that made the switch already too.
Unfortunately I get a feeling that Valve is going to make a proprietary platform out of Linux like Google did with Android and people will be clapping all along the way.

Valve will do with SteamOS what’s good for them and their profits. They aren’t in this for idealism.
They stand to gain nothing from making a proprietary platform
