How so? porting and scaling is pretty much the same thing as thats what porting is doing is scaling the engine to the hardware of the device. You and goopy seem to be under some impression that it takes a master class of a team to scale said engines and is impossible.

The Witcher 3 can look the exact same as the switch version or the PS4 version or it can look even a gen above PS4.

The is no reason why MS cant have the XBSX version looking a gen above the XB1 version if they so want while even using the same engine as long as it scales well.

So they spend 12 months moving a slider down for the Switch version...

You know, I'm not a developer myself, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that developing a game to run in a range of GPUs from GTX 2080 down to GT 1050 might be a little bit different than porting a game from PC to Switch.
