This looks like a massively egregious case of thinking about your wishes over the regular consumer base.
No, the future of handhelds isnt to buy a system that costs twice as much as the 3DS right now and has games that also cost twice as much, since even small stuff like Bomerman costs $50 dollars, and then have paid online on top of it.
Handheld owners wont just run to the Switch if the 3DS died, and dropping it now will most likely lead to Ninty jst losing those customers. The handheld market is more than just "we'll buy anything if it has a battery life." and the Switch absolutely needs to learn from the 3DS if it wants to get the handheld crowd in the future.

I'd only really start to get worried if they start announcing titles for 1H 2018 and beyond that aren't just localizations of previously Japan-only work. That means that they took the sales success in 2H 2016 too seriously...

I'm expecting the last big game for the system to be one more Pokemon game this year, but I dont doubt that smaller titles will probably be cross platform with the Switch and 3DS for a while afterwards, like Blaster Master. It also depends on if or when a handheld only Switch or whetever else they may have in store is going to come out.
