We asked Valve why there aren't more Steam Controller-style gamepads designed for PC first.

I think what people will look back on and say was so successful about this design as it relates to the steam deck joysticks and trackpads is that it cemented a control pattern that I think will become a standard for high quality pc gamepads/handhelds.

The market is ripe for someone to make something very similar but flip the joysticks and touchpads for people that prefer that layout, for one…

I think the market is kind of stagnant, the Steam Controller should help shake that up a bit hopefully. I’m looking forward to getting 2 of them myself.
