Valve has just added average framerate data to the Steam Deck Verified system, and while it's a step in the right direction, it's also not a good idea.
I feel like there could be really good data from this framerate pool, but it needs to be sorted in some way.
For example, you could probably split it into “target” fps categories based on where that player’s majority fps is. Knowing that someone playing at 30fps target is seeing sustained drops below 25fps is more telling than knowing that the average fps is 37.
