It depends on what the scale is measuring when we reduced all of the variation to this single dimension.
An aggregation of image quality, graphics effects, and performance in GPU-bound 8th Generation-like titles? Docked mode is a 4 (with Series S being a 6) and PS4 Pro being a 3. Handheld mode is a 1 to 2. Generally what we see is that the Switch 2 (when Docked) is capable of playing some 8th Generation titles that are capped to 30fps on PS4 base at about 40-60fps, but with better effective image quality (and often internal resolution), much better texture quality, and some other asset enhancements. The Series S does better than Switch 2 here.
Same aggregation in current generation titles that use 9th Generation render pipelines or titles that have some optional 9th Generation features? 5, with the Series S being a 7, and the PS4 Pro being a 2. In this case, the scale is measuring something like "relative likeliness to have a good port without a very diminished experience."
