Actually current CPU is biggest bottleneck of Switch. Of Course that PS5/XB2 will have stronger CPUs but Switch will also have much stronger CPU, I mean we already have announced ARM A76 CPU thats miles better than A57 (after A57 we have A72, A73, A75 and now A76), who knows what we will have in around 5 years period. 

In what benchmarks exactly ?  

If we use Cinebench R11.5 as example, the Snapdragon 835 which uses customized A73 cores and the i7-8850u which is a Kabylake-R chip, it's 6x faster in single threaded performance compared to the A73 in a similar form factor ... 

That's not all, the next gen consoles 8 Zen 2 cores with fullrate AVX/AVX2 (256-bit width SIMD) while the current Switch only features 3 cores with NEON (128-bit width SIMD extension) ...  

Are you sure Nintendo's next portable system will be able to keep with what is likely RyZen 3rd generation or maybe even 4th generation ?
