My friend it's not rocket science your source santiago says in his video Hogwartz can't go over 720p even with over clocks cause it runs at 20fps only so it's doesn't offer huge boost in resolution like you state. With the over clock hogwartz runs at 28-30 fps with no over clocks it was 20-30fps. Just watch all the videos of santiago it clearly shows in the same settings the jump is like 5-15fps.

12 minutes into the video, you're going to say with a straight face there is no difference in resolution from the left to right image? 

You should also read his comments, his videos are generally good but he made a mistake of not upclocking the RAM in his Switch comparisons which people point out to him. From his own comments, he responded:

UPDATE: I was able to easily push the ram to 2400MHz, this made a big difference, expect it to be closer to 60 FPS with that extra adjustment

The fact that a Switch can get anywhere even in the ball park of 40-60 fps, when PS4 and XBox One are 30 fps is not anything to complain about. 

Just saw the Hogwarts comparison yea it' big and that resolution is probably 400p, the game for the most part is 540p in handheld and is a unfair comparison really showing the worst part of the base switch version where it's gonna  be extremely bandwidth starved cause of the trees and angle. 

Nothing amazing about the switch doing 40-60fps when the game looks like a turd on a big screen.

You also fail to mention that these over clocks don't really have that much effect on docked mode, the huge benefit is handheld mode. I think people that want a pro would want much bigger benefit on a big screen. also you keep saying Nintendo didn't over clock cause they wanted weaker hardware for a bigger jump for switch 2 but even the OG switch is severely under clocked, according  to your sources over clocking the memory would use no extra power and offers a nice  stable 30fps for botw and Totk so maybe it's just nintendo  realizes this is device mainly for kids and doesn't  want them tinkering with setting and just wants the longest battery life possible.
