Switch 1 was just way less capable. As opposed to seeing it as half-hearted, the truth is it was just a much bigger and less intelligent investment to get games onto that platform. Their games made for PS4/Xbox One specs wouldn't of scaled down well without significant investment, and creating ground up exclusives for the Switch wouldn't make sense when they had a very lucrative PS/PC market where relevancy there established their current success. Monster Hunter for example wouldn't have had its break out global success without that modern, AAA experience World delivered back in 2018. 

S2 actually fits in with their ecosystem instead of requiring them to shift their ecosystem specifically to incorporate Nintendo. 

I agree with Curl that support from Capcom last gen was a bit half-hearted but what you're saying is definitely true. I think another point is that Sony's sales have continued to decline in Japan and PS5 + Xbox Series will probably see a worldwide decline in sales compared to last generation. Couple that with ever-rising development costs and it just makes sense for companies like Capcom to put more money and resources into Switch 2. 

I haven't played a Monster Hunter game in quite some time. Think I'm gonna use this port to jump back into it. I've heard Wilds is a bit more beginner-friendly.
