You can always dual-boot. Bazzite is a very stable Linux distro, which is optimized for gaming and basically gives you the same experience you would get on a Steam Deck. I highly recommend it.
Yeah, it's really a question of time or money for me. Whichever I have enough of first will decide which option I go with first. I don't expect I'll be buying Windows again.
Time in terms of setting everything up or learning how to use it? Because I can tell you that both are relatively easy. The installation is super easy, no harder than an ordinary Windows setup. The Steam Deck by default uses a desktop environment called KDE, as a Windows user, you should feel right at home. I'd say it's very intuitive to use and easy to learn. As Bazzite tries to mimic the Steam Deck experience as closely as possible, it uses the exact same stuff. Maybe check out this video.
