honestly its not that obvious.
Anyone could legitemately just as easily say its a portable console with a home mode.
When you rally think of it, as a console it has way more things that makes it a portable console than it does that makes it a home console. Its got a screen, battery and the same unit you see the screen on is the same place you insert the games. Doesn't get any more portable than that.
I think what is obvious is that people are moving the posts. A "home" console is a console that cannot function without being connected to a display. A portable console has its own display. The Switch is a portable console that can also be plugged into a TV via the dock.

Switch is a hybrid, so both home and handheld console. Someone could deem it portable home console. What you say, is an oversimplification.
The handheld part has detachable controllers, when you disconnect them, what do you have? Not a handheld console, but a screen/or tablet you could say, this attaches to a dock, screen turns off when its placed inside the dock, content is streamed on tv via an hdmi and we get a home console, of which the brain is the screen/tablet. The detachable controllers of the screen/tablet connect to a grip to make the controller of the home console. You are talking as if switch is like a 3DS, but you can play it on tv with a cable and a dock.
Anyway, Nintendo calls it a home console first and foremost, so what I'm telling or you're telling doesn't matter!
Is this just a tablet that links to a keyboard? It Is a tablet that when connects to keyboard creates a laptop, with your logic it's still a tablet when its attached to the keyboard, while is obviously like a laptop.
