Portability or Power?

You are missing the point.  When I play inside portably, it is usually not in my own house.  It is at work on my break, downtime at the beach house on vacation, in a hotel room on my family reunion trip in two weeks, or in the morning at my parents house while visiting family during a period when everyone is waking up or at night when everyone else is sleeping.

The Switch allows me to do these things without sacrificing my game time in any way.  Had I not had my Switch, I would lose a weekend of gaming in two weeks, this past weekend, or have nothing to do on vacation during my downtime.  You do not have to, "be outside" at all for portability to be a major factor in your gaming.

Since you are replying to a post I was replying to 2 other people what point of yours I'm missing?

The person to whom I replied was praising the great portability to use in house for those that have no use for it outside of house and that was my countering to.

I don't commute (have to drive), when I travel I bring my console with me, when I'm with family at most will do small cell game or more likely interact with them. That is why for me power is much more important than Portability while I completely understand why some people value Portability a lot (like in your case). But to purchase a portable or even a hybrid to take use of the 5 min dump in the bathroom or waiting for the microwave to heat a food is not a good investment on my opinion considering all the sacrifices that need to be made for the portability

If that was your point, I agree.  If someone cannot just wait five minute for a hot pocket or taking a dump, they need to prioritize their time better lol.

I would be afraid I would get poo on my finger by some stupid fluke of a reason and then getting it on my Switch.  As unlikely as that is to happen, I still would not chance it.
