Instead of wondering you could just ask me directly. 
As you even acknowledge, it's content that you buy separately from the game. Main differences are you scan a figure instead of downloading, and that figure can work in various games while typical dlc is tied to one. Otherwise the ingame effects are mostly the same, generally cosmetic.
Nintendo seems to have put a lot less emphasis on amiibo with the Switch so maybe New Horizons will be without them.
