In way it's already a thing. You can install Steam Link on TVs running Android TV

True but imagine a gaming tv with all the hardware requirements, and true steam os, you could turn it on and load up a game straight from the tv and not have to stream it

That TV will be obsolete in a heartbeat, on top of being a pain in the ass to keep a good airflow.

Not necessarily if it was upgrade friendly and had a built in cooling chamber and or fan / vents, I’d say it’s doable

Or they could just put a port in the TV where you could plug in your choice of gaming device.
