Not really. You can choose to go somewhere else at any time. Even the Steam Deck is open to installing a different OS that doesn't even include the Steam store.

I like that their services are so good they don't even need to make any restrictions to get you into using them. If I installed another OS on my steam deck, I would still install the Steam store...
