How long would you prefer a console lifespan to last before replacement?

Whenever there is a fundamental leap in hardware capability that makes the generation jump... Well. Generational.

Out of curiosity, in what year would you expect the hardware to be available (and affordable) for a generational leap over the Switch be viable at a $300 price point with a decent profit margin? (In a similar handheld/hybrid form factor of course)

2021 is probably when 7nm+ with EUV is mature with really good yields while fabs start looking/transitioning towards 5nm.

nVidia of course needs to invent the chip as well... Maybe using Orin? Would be interesting to see if they use their Carmel cores.

Maybe 2022. The ball is entirely within nVidia/AMD/Other ARM manufacturers courts of course.
