Valve will create a Steam Deck compatibility catalog for every game available on Steam

Nah, it literally says they are doing the entire catalogue on the home page...

 

That sounds like an expensive endeavor to say the least, the Steam library is so vast at this point(40-60 thousand with a rate of 8 to 11 thousand games a year released on the platform) it will take a lot of people a long time to go through it all. I imagine that this is likely a multiyear project and all but the most popular of titles will have an unknown rating at the Steam Decks launch.

this isn't directed at the OP really, I'm just noticing it more and more. Youtube also doesn't label 720p content as HD)

* anymore 

**falsely because 720p is "HD"

High-definition video is video of higher resolution and quality than standard-definition. While there is no standardized meaning for high-definition, generally any video image with considerably more than 480 vertical scan lines or 576 vertical lines is considered high-definition.

of course, if i had the same shitty compression algorithms as yt, i wouldn't consider 720p "HD" either

They can just pull most of the data from protondb,  should take a few weeks top, and it doesn't have to be accurate,  initially,  or ever. It'll be "good enough"
