Companies should stop making laptops and ipads as well as those are bigger than the switch too! You can't fit 10 inch ipads inside of your pockets so they are pointless!

People don't use laptops the same time they would a Switch. No one pulls out a laptop while they are standing in line to get their frozen mocha frappe with extra sauce, no whip, or when they are standing in line to see Pirates of the Caribbean 7 at 2:37 am on a Friday morning. And think about the times you are already sitting comfortably, but someone sits down next to you to turn on General Hospital and you aren't engaged in the plot of that episode, do you go to the hassle of standing up, grabbing your laptop, fan, and tray, bring it all back, plug in the charger, boot it all up and the game, or simply reach inside your pocket and firmly grab your hybrid while the hospital mafia does its thing?

Most people these days don't pull out a switch out of their pockets either from my experience. They are all on their phones while they wait.

I don't put a switch inside my pockets because a) It would accelerate the Joycon Drift issue compared to putting it in a carrying case b) If it's in Jeans, walking would be pretty uncomfortable. There are a few more reasons but those ones are the main two. If I am in a hospital, I'd pull out the switch from my carrying case and not from my pocket since I want to avoid Joycon drift. When I get a Steam Deck and if I end up in a hospital, I can pull it out from it's carrying case and watch Netflix or play God of War. Both of which you can't do on a Switch.
