I know why the Switch OLED is more expensive

You didn't explain why it's more expensive though. Clickbait title?

I think that it is more expensive to give incentive to sell all the stock of the previous versions, making the OLED and Lite the only two available in due time.  The price can then be dropped to 300 when the time comes and it will be labeled as a price cut.

Unless of course it sells at 350 over the years like the base model already is at 300...in which case 350 will stay till sales drop.  Not my preferred business strategy as a consumer, but it is a logical one for Nintendo.
