Comparing it with consoles and PCs wheen you should b comparing it with handhlds and laptops.

No. The Switch is *also* competing against the PC, Xbox One, Playstation 4, Scorpio, Playstation 4 Pro, Tablets, Phones, Laptops and other Handhelds.

So it can be compared against anything and everything. That is Nintendo's marketing position and that is the position it shall be compared against.

Don't move the goal posts just because you may not agree with the results.

Alright, I don't know much about obscure tablets or GPUs, so I'm gonna need your help here: is there currently a device, the size of the Switch, that hits the 70% of Xbox One power benchmark you mentioned, that is out right now? Cuz I've never heard of one, but if it exists I'd at least find that interesting. 

Full clocked, Maxwell based Tegra should get close enough, so that would mean the Pixel C, Shield TV etc'.
Pascal based Tegra without a doubt.
Volta based Tegra should be faster than the Xbox One if early hardware stats are anything to go by, should be released this year.

Apple's A9X in the iPad should be pretty competitive as well. (In-fact in many cases it's faster than Tegra.)

But they all have one caveat. They need resolutions to be kept fairly low, otherwise they become bandwidth and ROP starved.

The Xbox One is using an old Radeon 7770-class Graphics Core Next, 1st Generation GPU. It's not as efficient as Maxwell or Pascal by a long shot, the most accurate way to compare them is to take something like the Geforce 920M and compare it against AMD's Radeon 7770 in real world games.
But even then you need to take into account the 920M isn't always going to be as fast as Tegra due to it's bandwidth deficit and the Tegra might loose to the 920M in shader heavy scenario's.

Also I feel the stuff you spewing and how powerful mobile perfomance is very exaggerated. Tegra maxwell draws 20w fully use, this is a fact you have linked once and which means pixel c (the tablet) is in no way can sustain that perfomance if pushed to the max. And this is the case for every smartphone and tablet if the cpu and gpu at the same time is pushed to the max it will throttle very hard.
