I'm not really sure I even buy that FF7 Remake couldn't run on a Switch 1. It would take some elbow grease to port it, sure, but there are several PS4 games that run on the Switch, DOOM, DOOM Eternal, Nier Automata, DQXI, Wolfenstein, Witcher 3, Hellblade, Warframe, Fortnite, Overwatch, etc. etc.
That and Square-Enix made a cell phone FF7 remake called Ever Crisis that has battle graphics that look like they're either FF7 Remake assets or look damn close to it.
Would anyone have any big objection to a FF7 remake on Switch that looked like the above? I don't think anyone in Japan would, barely anyone there cares about graphics.
FF7 Remake honestly doesn't look better than Hellblade and the Switch has a competent port of that:
The truth really is Square thinks it's 2001 still, and they signed some dumb agreement with Sony that they likely at this point want to get out of but can't.
