Cartridges or optical discs?

The scope of Switch games will be compromised by cartridges I think. The same was true with the N64 vs PS1 and Saturn where the CDROM gave more scope to have more content which benefitted some games not all. Some ps1 games had brilliant soundtracks where as the N64 was more basic tunes, more snes, adlib style midi tunes.

To be fair it's nowhere near the same situation; N64 carts vs CD-ROMs was a difference of maximum 64MB to around 750MB, so a factor of more than x10.

By comparison, a Blu-Ray at 50GB isn't even double the 32GB current maximum of Switch carts.
