It's disappointing but I can live with it. What I'm confused by now though is somewhere on the support page did say Switch 2 versions wouldn't work on the original Switch. Or maybe I read it wrong.

That would actually be trash if they just sold the Switch 1 version requiring a full Switch 2 download and install, yet still didn't let you play it on current Switch. I didn't even want this to begin with, but if they're not putting it on Switch 2 cart with the full game there's no real excuse.

The wording is ambiguous on both the packaging and on Nintendo's website. So far we've only had one support team member say something about this and that person may very well be wrong. Usually "internet connection required" is put on the front of the box when a download is necessary to enjoy what's advertised on the front of the box, but we don't see this here.

I am leaning towards both the game and the upgrade pack being on the game card. What can definitely be ruled out is the interpretation in your second paragraph, because they absolutely will not put the Switch 1 version on the card and then have you download the Switch 2 Edition in full regardless.
