Bazzite has a very simple process for installing software that isn’t on Flatpak: You spin up a virtual machine running a better distro and install it there

Nobara’s handheld … ‘edition’, is a very, very rough ride in basic usability compared to Bazzite.
I tried it a month or so back, and it is just constantly asking for admin passwords to re-enable the basic gamescope overlay whenever you do amything to the system.
It asks you… to type in a password… after gamescope has been disabled… which means you have no keyboard.
A workaround to this is to hold the steam button on a deck and go into big picture mode, then use the joycons and buttons to kill steam, then you restart steam, then you can now type in the password.
… But you will have to repeat this process over and over and over again while in desktop mode.
This is what I would call unusable as a handheld PC OS. GE has to… actually figure out how to make it work when it is just a handheld, otherwise, you do not have a handheld OS.
