If Valve really wanted to make a splash, they could release a desktop version of SteamOS in October, right when support for Windows 10 ends. For additional damage, they could bundle in Half-Life 3. Just imagine the coverage this would get.

Like the wiki says:

Only available as the system image for the Steam Deck.

So OK sure, but you can literally only use it on the Steam Deck which already comes with it pre-installed.

I clarified my previous comment.

Yes, as I said in my initial comment, there is no general purpose release.

It's not true that you can "literally only use it on Steam Deck" either, lots of people have already demonstrated it working fine on a wide variety of devices. It's just not intended for that purpose.
