What you call a headscratcher is basic projection for software sales, meaning that Nintendo's Switch titles aren't done selling at the marks they've reached already. They'll comfortably add another few million units to their totals and then you'll have a comparison where Sony's games have stalled around the 10m mark whereas Nintendo's games have gone beyond 15m and even 20m. That's why "These titles are selling on par with the latest output of Nintendo." will clearly look wrong in a year's time.

You actually use software sales projection in your closing sentences when you mention Spiderman and The Last of Us 2, but you have to do the same thing for Nintendo. SSB Ultimate and Pokémon Let's Go are two big sellers that will release in 2018 and Nintendo is obviously far from done with Switch game development.

Just to elaborate. PS4 in it's early years, in terms of 1st party games is really weak in comparison.  It's Sony's fault. Not Ninty. 
The reason for head scratch is  I am talking about raw numbers which we can match it with Switch and 3DS or WiiU. 
That's the latest Nintendo's output where we can fairly compare because they are close with each other.
It doesn't matter if it took Sony 4 Years to release a game that can sell on par with Ninty Titles for the PS4 because that is not my point with the comparison and the fact that UC4 was released in 2016, HZD 2017, GOW, 2018. 

You don't have any evidence nor numbers that can prove that UC4 stalled at 10M. The 10M is just a safe assumption on how it sold. It could be at 10M or 12M by now we will never know unless Sony change their mind and they will provide numbers like Ninty. 
All we know is that before UC4 release Uncharted series sold 28Million including collection. On first week of December 2017 it's at 41.7 M.  Official numbers for UC4 is 8.7 M that leaves us 5 Million and Lost legacy sales is hampered by the people who bought season pass for UC4. We can safely assume that 2m sales min. is for UC4 and that's like 8 mos. ago. 
Then you also have uncharted 4 as part of Playstation hits that could spark the sales again.

@ BOLD I could be wrong in the future but Am I wrong now in telling that Sony titles are selling on par with ninty titles at the moment?

I was talking about 3DS only. You claimed that Sony has quite long way to go to match 3DS' 1st party sales output.
