This will definitely not happen, they need a longer life to make sure Switch 2 is roughly on par with Series S. So no, they aren't gonna cut their best money making machine ever just to hope to get third party games on their next system a little sooner, especially when that might actually backfire and make it harder for them to get third party games by releasing a weaker system earlier.
Also, knowing Nintendo, they won't even take all this into consideration, it'll just be the fact that the Switch is super popular so it'll be in the market for a long time and when a successor does come out in like 2024 it'll be able to handle Series S games without much work beyond just the straight porting work.
