there is night and day difference being slightly off on the attach ratio for mario kart, then giving  clear cut LTD number.

Back then Nintendo's PR suggested Switch sales of 115k for April 2017 when in reality they were 280k. That's a lot more than being "slightly off," not to mention that this happened during the crucial launch period. Sales of 115k would have meant that Switch is dropping off to an also-ran while in reality Switch was going strong.

i'm not gonna compare official LTD numbers to attach ratio plus math to come up with hardware numbers. I would never argue that those numbers could easily be wrong.
