None of what you said makes any sense. Do you even know what a flash cart is?
Comment on Rumored Nintendo Switch Flash Cart Video Shows Multiple Games on a Single Cart

Because then you could buy any old SD card and Nintendo makes no money from you. This way Nintendo can sell you the same NAND flash excepted wrapped in a propriety Nintendo container with the multiple orders of magnitude price increase to pad the bottom line. They can also pursue you for civil or criminal charges if you attempt to break into the container of flash charging you with copyright infringement and attempted hacking.

Lol, you've made some assumptions there. It's not a Nintendo product. Nintendo would NEVER release any kind of flash cart themselves, as they're begging to be used for pirated games.
Everything you've said about game carts are basically why we'll never see an officially licensed product like this from Big N themselves.
With that in mind, it still makes no sense as a product because you can run games off the SD card already (I assume. Very out of touch with Switch hacks)

You’re absolutely right. I saw the headline and responded. I withdraw my statement.

It makes perfect sense as a product because running game backups off an SD card without any hardware modding only works on the oldest console version. If you have a Lite or OLED (or even just the patched original model) you need a mod chip which is not an easy install.
