Your basically saying that it's the INTENTION behind the design that matters most. It doesn't matter what Nintendo intended the switch to be used for, docked or handheld. A docking station pass through box does not transform a handheld into a console, regardless of intention. Distinctions are important in life.

Since I'm of a similar mindset, I'm wondering why you think Switch isn't a console? 

I've glanced back at some of your posts to find your definition, but rather than saying why something isn't console, you seem to be explaining why something is a handheld.

But what makes PS4 a console? And is Switch lacking that?

Ok. The PS4 has a high power draw and a design that shows it clearly is meant to sit stationary and be powered off of the wall. The switch has a low power draw and that means it's primary function is that of a handheld.
