Switch 2 should have used PS5 strategy regarding physical media

GKCs are Nintendo's doing, not 3rd party publisher's.

Wouldn't be much better that if instead of them there was slower "game install required" cards on much cheaper media, so that there is actual choice between (something like) premium Game Cartridge (current game cards), Game Cart (install required) and Digital, instead of current Game Cart, GKC (which is glorified Digital) and Digital?

Each publisher is making their own decisions whether to use game-key cards. As such, it's the responsibility of the respective publisher and never Nintendo's. The same logic holds true for code-in-a-box packaging.

Your suggestion is to replace glorified digital with glorified digital. Either way you quickly run into the need to purchase a large micro SD express card when one of the important points of physical games is that that isn't necessary.

Not following your logic here. Or you're claiming that BD games on PS5 are not physical?
