RE active cooling
Here is a very detailed and direct referenced break-down of the Nintendo patent filed this past week.

I don't see why you ignore this as a source for active cooling outside of purposeful bias.
RE NS vs Shield TV
Why are you asking if NS GPU is 1GHz? Shield TV is only 512GHz (FP32).

That is what I've had in the OP for X1 and orig dev kit rumor all along. That is at least where NS started at as a base discussion before doing whatever tweaks they've done for hte 500 man-years of effort Nvidia claimed.
Even if we base NS at the dev kit rumor, we see a lower CPU in NS, better RAM in NS and equivalient GPU in NS.
However, there is also https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2016/10/20/nintendo-switch/
This demonstrates what the X2 or P1 in the wiki above is discussing. It also, thus far, matches the latest confirmations in patents and confirmed things like usb-c power/adapter to dock, no fans/tech in dock, shoulder buttons on connector end of joycons, etc. The only quesitonable data in that now is maxwell vs pascal - though there have been multple sources on gaf to say while dev kit is maxwell, they are still positive retail is actually pascal.
This is where the Denver and some clock speeds in the OP come from and that is absolutely more powerful and very much plausible.
