Voice Chat on Switch, silly as it is, is not a children's protection act. That's just what fans assume. But fans are stupid and will blame anything on "protecting the children". The reason stated I believe has more to do with the fact that everyone has a smartphone, and in Japan talking through the phone online is apparently more popular than traditional headsets (or so I've heard). The implementation could be better, but it has nothing to do with keeping kids safe. 
You believe, so you're just assuming too then. I think Nintendo's history holds more weight than "I believe." They shut down swapnote specifically to protect the children, don't see why you'd be stupid for thinking further restrictions are done for the same reason. Plus it's either that, or Nintendo is dumb and incompetent. The existence of smartphones is not an excuse to half-ass/omit the most basic of features.
