personally I think Nintendo will release a "Switch" that's strictly portable, only operates at portable specs and has no cradle/TV connection in about 2 years time, but ofcourse that's not a separate system, but a 2nd device for the same ecosystem

I hope they take it in a the opposite direction too and make a fixed low-cost home console at a cheaper price by ditching the Joycons, Screen, Battery, Dock etc'.
I would jump on that.

I think both are possible. And, as for the extra portable switch, it doesn't even need to completely ditch home play. It could simply not come with a cradle, and not have detachable joycons. If you later wanted to use it for home play, you could buy a separate cradle, and separate controllers.

I guess it wouldn't really be possible for the cheaper, home only version to also be taken on the road.
