And risk getting banned?

 

Unknown here but for the 360 there were odd side effects like the MPEG4 decoding not working in banned ones, but offline or flagged ones could still use it.
It was later sorted but for a while it was a reduced functionality (albeit one not many cared for -- it was not as bad as the old "MPEG4 capable" DVD players but not far off, and a far cry from the glory that was XBMC on the original xbox).
I imagine there could be some kind of legal argument put forward that removing such functionality is against the law somewhere (similar logic was used when Sony removed their otherOS stuff) but I will leave that one for now.

 

you're the one who wasn't properly reading my posts and no one knows every body is going off specualtion at this point

 

For an extremists route to avoid getting banned if you have the switch already, go on eBay and buy another switch Tablet for 150 even if that tablet is used and banged up

 

I think ban invincibility would mean that if you get banned, you can just change the data that the online service uses to identify your switch to block you when you try to go online, effectively unbanning yourself. It would mean you also need to get another NNID, which would mean you have to pay for the online service again. Still better than being forced to buy a second Switch.

 

For a traditional system then yes that would play.

I could trivially design a system wherein that would not work though, and I reckon updates could pull of some detection methods on a stock switch (obvious first step being "is there a massive file not normally there on the SD card that contains a whole bunch of nice NAND data?"). Similarly if you did slip up and the unique identifiers you presumably copied in creating the emunand image did manage to get reported back to Nintendo (you are probably going to want some kind of online access in hacked mode so most then get to blacklist Nintendo's servers, the failures of blacklists are well known) then you are still facing a ban.
