Overall I agree with most of what you're saying but I still feel like 5 years is too soon.

I'm guessing March 2023 giving it 6 years with 2 years of support after that, similar to 3DS.

Yeah 2023 sounds about right; give it 6 years before replacement, 5 would be cutting it too short for such a successful system. 

It will probably be 7 rather than 6. 7 years is the norm now for consoles. The former president Kimishima stated they intend to support the Switch longer than the 5-6 year lifespan (stating perhaps a 7-10 year lifespan). 7 is the safest bet so likely March 2024 or Holiday 2023.
