Am I really the only one who would take longer boot/load times...

...if we meant that we got a Switch 2 operating system that's as full-fledged as the 3DS or Wii U ones?

Hell, you cannot even create a Nintendo Account on the console. You have to own and use another device to open their website and register it over there. Nor can you edit its settings without usage of the website.

The eShop applet is just a wrapper that opens a website for the eShop. There's no actual eShop functionality in the OS itself.

You cannot set detailed parental controls without using a separate smartphone app. The OS only has support for basic settings.

And I can continue. Why does OS functionality have to be relegated towards web browsers and other devices just for a few seconds shorter boot time, when even the 3DS (with much weaker hardware) could handle it all in the actual OS? The booting was slower, sure, but the Switch 2 has much better hardware.

Nah, I refuse to believe that we can't have a little bit of sauce in the Switch 2 OS. The Gamecube had an iconic BIOS menu, doesn't take forever to load and the option to directly boot into the inserted disc for the even more restless people.
If Gamechat wouldn't eat up so much resources, then it would have more leg room for more fancier, user-friendlier and useful options.
I hated the Switch OS and moreso the Switch 2 OS.
