Could make it Bazzite, and it would probably work just a well as SteamOS... But yeah, no reason to really do that imo
Replacing it with Bazzite is a great option if you want to do anything that SteamOS is too restrictive for without sacrificing any of the features
Edit: to be clear, SteamOS will let you do just about anything, but the way the updates work will override a decent amount of changes you make, since the OS is immutable by default and designed not to be modified.
