No the source is EG with others bandwagoning on it, if the is no Tegra any person pushing the rumour will look silly and for the record WSJ also reported news on NX being more powerful than PS4 previously as well which calls into question several things.

No Nintendo said that power shouldn't be the main focus in driving gaming they didn't say it doesn't matter that is a typical argument taking things out of context, they will still use powerful hardware if it is financially viable it just won't be the main focal point of their platforms.

Well I want to know why you think what amounts to a handheld is going to have the processing power of a device that costs $400, is many times larger, and doesn't run on batteries, and it still be "finanically viable"

It's so portable. You can barely notice it (not to mention the battery to power this thing would need to be about the same size as the system, lol).
