Honestly, thats bad reasoning. And I'm sure you know this. You are intentionally trying to hamstring what is possible in order to argue your point.
2017 Switch had a 2015 chip. And this was coming off Wii U's massive failure in which they didn't make much money the past few years and they had to release a new system quite early. And yet you think the Switch 2 will use 4 year old technology compared to the Switch's 2 year old tech?? Obviously you are being disingenuous here.
Yeah, a 2023 Switch 2 isn't gonna release with a chip that comes out in late 2022, sure, but its also not gonna have a chip from 2019! It is perfectly reasonable to expect it to contain a chip that releases about two years from today, which will have significant advances over what is available now. Beyond teraflops, the next Switch will have other advances in tech that have taken place in the 10 years (at that point) since PS4 released which will give it a leg up. So it is perfectly reasonable to expect the portable mode to at least be on par graphically with a base PS4, and docked mode with let's say using twice as many watts similar to PS4 Pro. It might not have the exact same teraflops, but it will probably use a chip that gets the same performance with a lower raw number, and have some other areas with better specs (for instance, certainly it'll have more RAM available for games than a PS4 Pro does). Overall it is reasonable to expect roughly PS4 Pro type performance when docked.

Im expecting a Switch 2, end of 2021, or 2022.
The tech inside it will be stuff from 2019.
Thats not hamstringing it...... your entire argument is you think it ll launch lateron, and use newer tech.
I dont think that will happend.
You basically wrote a huge wall of text for no reason.
No its not reasonable to expect a handheld thats 4.2 Tflops of FP32 compute..... not in 2021 or 2023.

Ok welp, good luck with that 2021 prediction haha. Never gonna happen but you can dream i guess. Maybe you haven't noticed but the Switch ain't another Wii U, Switch ain't gonna be killed off early like Wii U was. Like i said, bad reasoning on your part.
