I don't think we should go by how it is viewed either. I think I came across wrong there. Sold as/viewed as/used as is all irrelevant. Function doesn't change depending on how something is sold/viewed/used. You can sell something/use something/and view something how you want but it will never change it's primary function. 

If the Switch lite can provide an experience close enough to the regular switch, that proves the dock is not integral to it's primary function. If the switch without the dock was like a bird without wings, how could they market it and sell it? It's easy, it's because the dock isn't integral enough to the functioning of the switch because it's a handheld first. 

Okay, so I'm going to stop arguing here because now you're just completely inconsistent. First you say that the function matters so much that what it is marketed as doesn't matter at all. Meanwhile, in the second paragraph you then suggest the Switch having the ability to be docked (a function) doesn't matter at all because it's not "integral" enough to the experience. 

So PSP can count because of the same reason Switch doesn't? Pick one.  

Neither of them count, that's my point.  Having something on a dock isn't a function. Even if you just leave the switch in the dock with no power and not being used, the switch is technically docked. A dock is just something that something else sits in. The dock itself doesn't function, without the Switch it can't do anything. It's like connecting your phone/ laptop to a TV and then giving 50% of credit to the cable.
