Providing extra power to the system can mean a big difference in performance. 

https://www.videogamer.com/news/nintendo-explains-that-switch-dock-is-not-the-main-console-unit

"The dock is not the main console unit of Nintendo Switch. The main unit of Nintendo Switch is the unit that has the LCD screen, which the two Joy-Con controllers can be attached to and detached from. The main function of the Nintendo Switch Dock is to provide an output to the TV, as well as charging and providing power to the system."

Yes. Providing power. As in, the electrical kind.

If you read my whole post without feeling the need to knee-jerk react you'd realize I understood that when I said, "Providing extra power to the system can mean a big difference in performance. " . I am sure you know that extra computational performance requires more power input for various reasons.
