There is no reason to get one, just connect your computer to a TV and have an equivalent or better experience.

Isn't the steambox just a really small computer with a cool controler?

There are multiple steam boxes of differing price ($499-$6000 iirc) with different components. If I'm correct the $6000 one comes with 4 Nvidia GTX Titans.

It's literally a small PC with Steam OS installed. If you're looking for a gaming PC, go elsewhere. While there are variants which can handle some gaming, it's not the same as going full custom.

TF2 has been available as part of The Orange Box on Xbox 360 and PS3 since 2007.
In fact, it launched on the Xbox 360 and PC simultaneously.

This is pretty much the best way to put things.
