It's not the same. The CPU's in the PS4 and Xbone were so bad that the switch CPU wasn't that far away from it. That's not the case anymore. The PS5/XBS consoles CPU is about 3x faster than the Switch 2 CPU. It's not about opinions or narratives. A game designed to run on the CPU of the PS5/XBS will run at about 10fps in the Switch 2 and there will be no amount of optimisation that could save it. 

Yup. Jaguar cores were junk. They were basically mobile cores back then in terms of performance. Zen 2 cores absolutely crush Jaguar.

PS5 is going to break a sweat playing GTAVI. XBSS is going to seriously struggle. SW2 while respectable for a handheld hybrid, just isn't going to be able to do it.

For sure, and that's a big loss. Worryingly, there' such a big disparity between the CPU's that I think any game that doesn't have a 60fps performance mode on XBS and PS5 won't work at all on Switch 2. The only major XBS/ PS5 game we know is on Switch 2 is Borderlands 4 I think? I'm guessing that game has a 60fps mode and that would explain why it works on Switch 2.
