and by extension a March 2023 launch because that would only happen if Nintendo targeted holidays 2022 and had to delay the launch.

Why would a March release have to be unplanned? A March launch isn't a bad thing, in fact separating the launch rush and the holiday rush has it's advantages.

Is there any evidence that the Switch was meant to come out Holiday 2016 and had to be delayed to March 2017?

Console manufacturers would rather launch earlier than later, and also have a holiday release than a non-holiday.

So the most likely outcome was that they wanted 2016 holiday but small delay in production (maybe also linked to the price of semi-conductors) led to March 2017.
