Comparing Normal Switch and Switch Lite is more like comparing a PC with a laptop than a 3DS with a 2DS or PS4 with PS4 pro. Both share the shame exact software, but one have a main characteristic that the other one can't use. With a laptop you can bring your computer everywhere with a battery and with a PC you need to stay in a defined place connected in the same place. With Switch and Switch Lite is the same, just in this case the hybrid part are the laptop and the original Switch, but the other part goes in the opposite direction; the PC is just like a home console and Switch Lite just like a handheld.
Comparing Switch Lite revision like if it was like 2DS or PS4 Pro revisions is wrong in my opinion. The better comparison would be more like PS Vita and PS Vita TV, which by the way both counted to PS Vita total sales (as a handheld to be precise).
Maybe the original problem was not considering Switch a home console OR a handheld in the first place. Maybe the problem is putting a hybrid console against home consoles AND/OR handhelds. An hybrid is its own thing...In my opinion Switch shoud had never been compared to PS4/XBO like it is not compared against 3DS and PSV, for the same very reasons.
But ey..., if we already counted Switch as a home console since 2017, i admit it will be very weird to change that now, even with the Switch Lite, so ...whatever.
