From a commercial point of view a cheaper "only docked" version would probably backfire. It would only make the regular switch look more expensive a less convenient, thus making pressure for Nintendo to lower the price. At the same the "only TV" model should still cost less since it lacks the main feature of portability. In the end it would only be a vicious cycle.

Imo, an "only TV" model could have more chances to work if priced the same as the regular Switch. In that case it should offer better graphical quality to compensate the loss of portability (higher resolution and the likes).

This. Just like Nvidia Shield portable and Shield console. Switch hybrid and Switch home console. Make both the same price so the hybrid has the portable value and the console has the performance value. The console could also cost more depending on it's level of performance, but shouldn't be any more than $50 - $100 over the hybrid or it may lead to fans complaining the hybrid is too weak.
