splitting up their game development efforts was imo one of the main reasons their home console pillar didn't do so well at several points

I disagree. The kind of games they were focused on first party wise and not having 3rd party support were the main reasons why their home consoles didn't do that well most of the time. If what you're saying was the case, they should have just went with handhelds if they were gonna do "one pillar" because it did alot better in a pretty much uncontested market.  

Well, guess what: Switch basically is a handheld device. Yes, it also connects to TV, but the main design is for handheld. That it also connects to TV makes sense, if you give up on home console.
