Wii U = 176 Gflops
Switch = 393 Gflops

PS4 = 1,840 Gflops
PS4pro = 4,200 Gflops

"Does Switch strike you as a half-step like the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X?"

By the numbers? yes. Its very much a half-step like the PS4Pro (smaller step up, than the PS4pro is).
But you sorta have a point anyways.... its not like their the same machines that play the same games, even though the switch did see alot of Wii U ports.

Well, when talking about gens, it is time that determines them, not power. If Nintendo continues with handhelds/hybrids, going by power alone, it will take them decades to reach Gen 9, which are probably going to be 10+ Tflops machines.  It's just a silly way to look at the market.  I think Nintendo will probably release a Switch Pro to lengthen the Switch's life, but even that would probably only hit ~1 Tflop.

And to be fair to the Switch, sure it's not that much more power than the Wii U, but like I said, it is also a handheld machine. It being twice as powerful is still pretty impressive. And consumers seem to think so, too.
