Did people say all of what before PS4 Pro and Xb1X? Those systems were made to play games in 4k. They don't play different games than the base versions of those systems, or make the base versions obsolete for certain games unless you get some peripheral. They are purely for people who want to play in 4k. No user base splintering or confusing cheap marketing gimmicks to make games that can play in 4k be able to be played not in 4k.
Iterative hardware is totally not uncharted waters. Nintendo portable systems (i guess except a little bit with Game Boy Color) have never been splintered into certain games working with certain versions, and having to buy random peripherals to get the games to work with other versions. All versions of 3DS play the same games except for apparently like 2 to 5 games. New 3DS wasn't launched to make 3DS owners obsolete and get more downgraded ports of more powerful systems.
What you are describing in a Switch Pro (a much more powerful system) is a Switch 2. Also you are saying that next gen games will somehow be ported to the original Switch if there is a much more powerful new version of the Switch that splinters the userbase because somehow despite not getting much in the way of ports from PS4/Xb1 it will somehow get ports from newer far more powerful systems. So a new portable system will be strong enough to get ports from new games of also brand new home consoles and therefore those same next gen home console games will get ported to an older portable system....just because....in this theoretical world power differences mean nothing and suddenly this year portable systems will be on par with home consoles released the same year and magically those games will transfer down to less powerful older portable systems?
Like seriously your post has zero logic in it. No offense. Just wishful fairy and dreams type thinking not based in physical reality.

If anything it's people who are obsessive compulsive about hardware linearity that have been proven wrong quite a bit.
Portable only Switch that doesn't Switch couldn't happen because issues.
PS4 Pro and XB1X when first rumored, you had a bunch of people saying you can't do that because that hasn't been done before.
2DS version of the 3DS can't happen.
Etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.
If anything, these companies have shown they don't give a shit what a whiny small portion of the fanbase thinks just because they are obsessed with some stupid notion of brand uniformity.
A pro model would certainly make Nintendo a lot of money, just like pro models have made Sony and MS a lot of money.
If you got to break an egg or two to make an omelette, so be it.

This post doesn't follow the argument you're attempting to make.
None of the things you just mentioned have anything to do with splintering a user base and forcing people to buy and carry around battery packs to play certain games. None of the things you listed break systems ability to play the games released for those systems, or force them to buy peripherals to play games.
I am quite sure Nintendo will release a Pro model of the Switch. But that's not what you have been pushing. You've been pushing battery packs and creating two different game libraries for the same system. I think you must work for the battery pack industry, otherwise your obsession with this makes no sense.
