Did I imagine this setting of is it hidden somewhere?
Ha, so there is indeed something missing in the settings? I've also looked through all the settings and searched for a way to configure the touchpad gestures at all. Couldn't find anything. Would be very happy to learn about how to do this on Wayland. (On X I've just used the nice program Touchégg and could configure it the way I liked, even on a per app basis.)

Questions about TUXEDO InfinityBook Pro 16 - Gen7 Max Performance Edition
I'm running Fedora (well Nobara specifically) with Wayland. However, you can get nice touch gestures on most any laptop with X11 using a tool like Touchégg if they are not already working. I've used tools like this for almost a decade to get nice multitouch gestures under X11 with great success.

Touch pad in Elementary OS
elementary OS uses touchegg to handle touchpad gestures, and you can configure it anyw ay you pleaase: https://github.com/JoseExposito/touchegg. The options available by default in elementary OS gestures are kinda rudimentary, so I also recommend https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.joseexposito.touche to more easily define them the exact way you like, and to also maybe even set-up custom gestures for different applications.

Touchpad Gestures and Hibernate option
If I'm not mistaken, you can only enable hibernation if you've set up a swap partition on your disk. As for the touchpad gestures, you might want to take a look at these - https://github.com/JoseExposito/touchegg https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.joseexposito.touche

kde tilling features needs some attention
That's exactly what happens. Bismuth was a fork of Krohnkite. If someone needs Bismuth enough, they will pick it up, fork it or whatever.

KDE VS GNOME
No idea what exactly that shell does but in KDE krohnkite https://github.com/esjeon/krohnkite was pretty popular until it was somehow superseeded by bismuth https://github.com/Bismuth-Forge/bismuth (which forked krohnkite or was inspired by or whatever) and now with Plasma 5.27 there's initial work on a native tiling window manager including a whole new API for people to build upon, and which can be accessed with Meta+T.

Is there a way to install Kwin - Bismuth on my steam deck in a way that doesn't make my head hurt?
You can use Kronkite just fine. Bismuth is a fork of it, and their feature-sets are practically the same.

Are there options for dynamic window tiling in a traditional desktop environment?
Do you know how that differs from https://github.com/esjeon/krohnkite it seems like that is another tiling extension.
