Though unlike on PS4/XB1, this is the only way to back up your saves, so it still comes across as shady to me.

Wait, what?  You're kidding?  That's ... interesting.

Anyway, "Nintendo Switch Online" is an odd choice for a name.  You'd usually want your service to form a stand-alone shell that could connect different consoles without worrying about name changes.  PSN is PSN regardless of the device being used, for example.  Perhaps that means "Switch" is going to be around for a long time? 

I'm calling a "Switch 2 Nintendo!" slogan right now.

For the ps4 kindof. You need PSN in order for cloud saves to work. However, you can use an sd card to back up saves for free.
