If you just add a 5PS Engine on your bike its licence free. At least where I live! And the Switch, as Hardstruck correctly stated is no high end home console, the same goes for a 5PS engine- its no V8 engine. But the Switch is (or at at least was) high end for a handheld when it released! And here again my fellow college is right, a hiden HDMI port under a plastic box does not transform your handheld into a home console, no matter how hard Nintendo wants to make you believe in it!! As someone stated, a car is no musicbox just because i can have music in my car.
@Hardstruck
An argument you and the others forgot:
Why is there a Switch Lite, a version you can ONLY use in HANDHELD mode, but no Switch TV like PSVita (PSTV) had? That would "transform" the PSVita into a home console a lot more than the Switch is now! Please think about that!

Why would one stand alone TV device, transform a stand alone portable device into a home console?
PS TV is a home console. 
PSVita is a handheld

Although I've legit had a fun giggle in this thread, Thank you Hardstuck-Platinum, I'll end by saying:

If you want to argue semantics: First find a dictionary definition.
If you want to argue meaning, actually discern the product design, intended uses and common uses.
If a device fits more than one function, ask if and why these functions/labels are mutually exclusive.


Because it takes the wind out of the "home console sailors". IF Nintendo really wants to show Switch as a "home console first and formore" like they literally say, why not release a Switch TV (only) like the Switch Lite is Handheld only? Answer: Because technically the Switch is a Handheld. A small road in the woods is no highway, just because i technically could drive there with a car and speed it up insanely.
