Prediction: Nintendo will move forward with a Switch family of consoles in the same way MS is claiming they will handle XBox...

There seems to be some confusion here, so let me clarify. This is not a prediction about small incremental upgrades, but rather the way the Switch family of consoles will evolve down the line. For example, a full blown Switch 2 falls in line so long as what I mention in my OP still comes into fruition.

Key points...

Full BC for OG Switch.
Same eshop with digital purchases carrying over.
Same core hybrid concept and execution.
Innovation being done by add ons like Labo and Ring Fit rather than basing the console around it.

A "next gen leap in power" can still happen and remain part of the Switch family. Be it closer small upgrades or bigger and more spread out leaps in power, the end result is the same for my prediction.  Also I believe that this pattern will continue for as long as dedicated hardware remains relevant for Nintendo.

There isn't any confusion, you're just backpedaling on this. Nintendo has shown no indicator of doing what MS is doing right now. That's it.

There is no back pedaling at all.  What I said in my edit is nothing more than a shorter and more to the point version of my OP.
