Imagine how much a handheld-only option for the Switch would sell with a $200 price tag. But would it still be called Switch (name wouldn't make sense for the concept anymore)?

We still talking about same platform and same games, thats far more important than single concept.

Yes but the name represents the platform, Switch name represents the home console + handheld hybrid concept and that you can "switch" between them whenever you want. Switch name wouldn't make sense for a handheld-only console.
