Looking at the final numbers for the year, the Switch still sold about the same as it did in 2019 before the pandemic and Animal Crossing caused such an unexpected and frankly absurd jump in sales in 2020. In fact, it sold a little more than it did in 2019. It's possible that rather than being on the decline, the market for the Switch has simply been correcting itself with the end of the unusual factors which gave the system a somewhat 'artificial' boost. If that's the case then the system has more life left in it than the declines of the last 2 years would suggest. If the drop in sales from 2022 to 2033 is on the lines of 1-2 million units then that would confirm that's all that's happening. If it drops 4-5 million again like it did this past year then the system is indeed in a real decline and Nintendo needs to have a successor system ready sooner rather than later.
