"so much ignorance"

What ignorance? The things said in OP come straight out of the horse's mouth, do you know better than Nintendo?

"it is a gaming console"

Of course it is, when you play the semantics game anything that has something resembling a game is a gaming console, my old Tamagochi as well! When people say "console" it's clear what they mean by that, there's a clear distinction between consoles and handheld. The Switch is basically a handheld, you will never need to connect it to the dock to play games.

"no justification for negative reaction or pessimism"

There's no negative reaction, I'm not dooming or glooming Nintendo, I'm not even giving my opinion. Just stating the facts.

Horse's mouth? Nintendo stated it was a home console. Just because it has portability, doesn't mean its a "handheld". Additionally, when people push that it is a handheld, they do so with intent to make it appear as a low-tier device. Thus, negative reaction or pessimism.

nobody has said anything like that. You're projection is showing
