It is a new game for Nintendo fans. And a 16GB cart is more expensive than a 50GB blu-ray disc. This game use 32GB cart 

Memory prices have crashed down so much lately that I expect the price difference between a Blu-ray disc and a 16GB cartridge to be negligible by now, and the 32GB cartridge not much more expensive anymore. In fact, if the prices keep dropping as much as they did the last 2 years, then by 2022-2023 50GB Blu-ray discs will have to compete in price with 64GB cartridges. And this will probably be the point at which optical drives will go the way of the Dodo, safe for consoles, possibly movies/TV shows and some special uses, like archiving.

If that's the case, many AAA games from 3rd parties for Switch such as Bethesda games should use 32GB cart instead 16GB cart + download, right? "2022-2023 50GB Blu-ray discs will have to compete in price with 64GB cartridges" That is a possibility, but still is an unknown future. Unlike you, I can't be certain about it so at the moment, i will just wait and see
