I need to keep the display on the whole time and considering how slow my internet connection is, it is a lot. I am surprised that there is no option to download the games while in standby or sleep mode.

I know that the Deck lowers the brightness but it seems to be awfully ineffective and of course I am also worried about display burn in.

There's a decky plugin that let's you toggle an OLED black screen with a two button shortcut.

Highly recommend.

It's called magic black.

The reshade deck plugin also has a similar capability through a black screensaver.
