Steam Deck "sticking" Buttons.
This is more of PSA than anything but i have encountered two problems with buttons on the Steam Deck. The first was the B button with Control (a fantastic game for the Deck btw), the second with the RB button in the Battlefront Classic Collection (also great but only if you're nostalgic for the old games.) I almost RMA'd (sent the Deck back to Valve for repairs), but shortly after this request was granted, the button stopped sticking so much, almost as if the Deck was scared to go to the "Vet." In both cases repeated use of the button appeared to abate the issue.

So, in closing, before freaking out as I did that something was broken, give it some time. Often the button just needs to "grind down" I guess. Obviously if the problem persists, contact Valve, but that is obviously an inconvenience so just wait it out. If the problem comes back I will update this post but as of writing, everything seems to be working in order.
