As I said before, the home only switch is a real possibility that most would like and nintendo may consider, BUT it won't be digital only.
a card slot costs almost NOTHING to make. its not like the psp go, or the xbox one s. a disc drive has a lot of parts, exepnsive parts, which are also parts that can easily fail (laser, motor, drive belt).

I agree from cost and size (it would be a console type device, and even smaller than Switch that isn't big) it doesn't make sense, but well companies like more profit and digital gives higher margin. PSPGo really was a failure, but seems like X1SAD did better (sure price have to do with it) still they got a big retaliation from stores because they don't get much margin from console and wouldn't get any on the SW this backlash even caused regular versions of Xbox to be removed from their shelves.
