Iterative: doing something again and again, to improve it.
Having a fundamentally different strategy about things like primary control method, demographics, marketing, software output, etc. by definition means it wasn’t an iterative successor because Wii U wasn’t a Wii that was “the same thing just better”.
The PlayStation line of consoles are iterative because they all have the same focus. They are each more powerful than the last, the primary controller is always a revision of the previous, they have all pushed for the 13-35 demographic of shooters/sports/racing/action fans, they typically expanded their multimedia functions, etc.
Switch 2 is an iterative successor, it follows the same strategy and design of Switch 1, just bigger and stronger. The hybrid aspect of being able to play on the go or docked on the TV is still the primary focus and the Joy-Cons are essentially the same with some modest upgrades.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
