Was the Switch designed to Last?

Switch line, yes. But the Switch 1 and its revisions will not reach 10 years.

And your post stumbles at the first point: after X2, there are no new Tegras out or in current development to our knowledge. The tech and personnel behind X1 and X2 are working on Xavier which is not at all designed for consumer electronics, much less a small tablet form factor

Xavier finished last year, and though it seems to be working perfectly fine for consumer electronics as well. Actual problem comes from Xavier's minimum configuration likely consuming at least four times as more power than Switch. With future Tegra project - Orin - expected to run even more power hungry and hotter.

Considering Nvidia's track record, I don't think they will even bother if Nintendo would request a very heavily customized based SoC...

Actually, Xavier - which I did not realized had launched- is used in 0 consumer electronics and is planned for 0.  It is designed for autonomous machines and self-driving cars.

Actually, I think a bespoke Nvidia chipset using tech developed in the making of Xavier and perhaps the next peoject is high likely for Switch 2.

 

X2 is an easy Switch Pro with modifications.  A bespoke will absolutely be necessary past that point.
