Or you know.. just put that thing on the device that every switch user has (guess what it is)

Maybe is a way to save bandwitch and resources so the online on the go experience is less compromised? I don't really know, but while having it on the Switch looks like the ideal situation I struggle to see the big deal about cathing your phone and opening an app, is like 10 seconds and is not like you are gonna stop carrying your mobile once you get a Switch, everyone nowadays have a smartphone with them, even kids. And then there's also the possibility of this being an option instead of a requirement, no way to know it until they talk about it.  


Its impossible to say why they are doing it with an app, until they release the information on the app. Because it seems you will connect the headset to the switch normally. There is alot of unknowns about the service. There are several things it could be, and it ranges from Nintendo's usual wierd reasonings, to making it simpler to connect players playing on different systems. It's really pointless to ask why or come up with a good concession on wheather the move is stupid or not until the information is out.
