To me this implies that there will be no Wii U backward compatibility with NX.

How? It doesn't mention that at all. If anything, if the "hybrid" rumors are true, NX will have a Gamepad type controller, and it would make perfect sense for it to at least play Wii U discs. I also hope that they carry over the e-shop, and improve it, so that you can re-download digital games you already bought on Wii U (or even 3DS), on NX as well.

I would guess that Nintendo won't repeat a huge mistake tha cost them in sales  and money ( for almost two years )! What they can do, is the next handheld console to be what wii u gamepad was for the wii u, with the difference of not being mandatory to have it, like in the case of the wii u!!

Gamepad is costly and inflated wii u price by 100-110$...
