Is there a benefit in using it over the default OS?
It has all the advantages of steamOS, can boot straight into game mode, supports Decky plugins, etc.
However it also supports installing traditional Linux programs permanently (which steam OS generally won't let you do), and has other benefits too.
Does it also have the power-limiting features?
Yes and they apply while the device is off too.
