Hello, I would like to confirm a few things about microSD cards and Switch capabilities.
I've stumbled upon this test:
https://www.reddit.com/r/SwitchHack...ch_speed_tests_u1_vs_u3_microsd_cards_xci_vs/
It seems that UHS-I U3 is strictly better for loading.
What I want to inquire about is that I've read Switch's SD reader maxes at 100MB/s. Can't find the source ATM, but I've read it in several places. However, I found a UHS-I card that goes well beyond that in max read speed of 160MB/s:

Is the alleged Switch SD reader limit true? If UHS-I indeed maxes out at 100 MB/s, then what is the point of creating a card capable of more on UHS-I bus? So that can be used in UHS-II readers if necessary?
I am now wondering if an OC'ed Switch would benefit from reading speed above 100MB/s, and to a lesser extent, from A1 standard (I've read Switch now supports A1, can't find the source though; the card itself is A2, but it's backwards compatible ofc).
Is my reasoning faulty anywhere? Am I missing something important in NX specification?
