I would argue a large percentage of all consoles share a common userbase as games like Fortnite, Roblox and Minecraft etc' tend to dominate play time on each console.

It's also a poor argument that "sales means people are fine with it".

I am a Switch owner, I own multiple Switch consoles and I am not fine with it's hardware capabilities, in-fact even before the console released I wasn't happy with it, it could have been 50% faster and use the same amount of power by adopting Pascal instead of Maxwell for it's GPU architecture.

That doesn't mean I don't enjoy the console or haven't had a blast with some games like Links Awakening, Breath of the Wild and so forth... But if the only criticism I can level against a platform is poor performance? Then that's a small list of complaints in the grand scheme of things.

Having separate devices means that I don't need to compromise graphics in order to include features that I will never use like: A dock, Joycons, Display, Battery and more. - They can use that extra budget for faster hardware... Or even offer a lower price.

More choice is NEVER a bad thing for consumers.

I never said it would be a bad thing for consumers; heck, I would buy such a device myself, as I only play in docked mode.

What I'm saying is more that it probably wouldn't be worth it for Nintendo, because such a device would require a huge investment from them while probably selling very little.
