I'm surprised the difference isn't much higher, but I guess there's a ton of shovelware on the Switch.

respectfully, how have you not seen the infinite rivers of shovelware on steam since they stopped vetting the store ~10 years ago?

That seems to be the point being made by the person you replied to; the difference should be higher (in favor of the Steamdeck) because of the vast quantity available on Steam. The shovelware is precisely why it should be higher. I think they're expressing surprise that the Switch even comes within the range it does, hence bringing up Switch shovelware as a possible source for this.
