Why do you think Nintendo has survived so long as a platform holder?

I literally haven’t used my Switch 2 as a handheld since I bought it. It is 100% a Nintendo home console for me. 

How you use the device is literally irrelevant.
My tablet hasn't left it's dock since I bought it... It doesn't change my tablet from being a mobile device.

Just how I use my device is different.

It's just a handheld with a USB-C dock... It's nothing special in that aspect, the dock doesn't do anything other than parse the image from the handheld to the TV, it doesn't add RAM or CPU/GPU resources to the console, it doesn't do any special upscaling or enhancements to the image... it's a "dumb device".

It's a plain USB-C dock for a mobile device.
No different than the dumb USB-C docks for my tablet, laptop or phone. It's all there is to it.

That's a really pointless take in 2025.  The Switch is clearly designed as both a big screen TV console and a portable device.  There is simply no need to have different games and hardware for portable devices anymore. Just like PC games can run on both a desktop and a laptop: hardware limitations of the old days don't apply any more.
