How far away are we from seeing games like Horizon: Zero Dawn and Spiderman 2018 on Switch/Switch 2?

All those cards have 2x to 3x the memory bandwidth, assuming the S2 hits the max.

6 gb at 224 gb/s is going to smoke 8 gb at 112 gb/s.  

Even this isn't true, a 2050 runs basically all modern games and it has a whopping 4GB @96GB/sec. 

The Switch 2 has higher bandwidth RAM and a good deal more than that. 

The bottom line is developers still have to keep in the XBox Series S in mind for basically any game, we're seeing zero evidence that games are skipping the Series S to begin with even with all the most recent game announcements, Metal Gear Solid Delta? XBox Series S. GTA6? XBox Series S. Senua's Saga? Runs on XBox Series S. 

Comparing them directly like that is a misnomer anyway, never in any previous generation maybe with the exception of Switch 1 has portable consoles been able to run the same games more or less as the home consoles. If back in the day a freaking Game Boy was basically running the same version of Street Fighter 2 and Mortal Kombat as the Super NES/Genesis or DS was running PS3/360 games even at a lower spec setting, it would've turned the entire console generation upside down. I guess there was the Turbo Express, but that brand never was relevant globally to begin with, but that was an idea many years ahead of its time. 

The conclusion most people would come to in that situation would not be "boy, Game Boy or DS are pathetic". It would be more like "holy shit, the Game Boy or DS is running some/most of these big ticket 3rd party releases that previously were only on consoles or PCs". 

2050 isn't in the list of gpus being discussed.

Yet another goal post shift by you.

In the list is a 2060 at 336 gb/s, 3x faster than the max for the S2.  

6 gb at 336 gb/s is going to smoke 8 gb at 112 gb/s. 

Like Perma already stated, you tend to ignore facts.  

Edit

First card you listed was a 3060, which has 360 gb/s, over 300% faster than the max S2.  

Facts are facts.
