I think people are saying that they prefer when more focus is put on these systems rather than texture quality, lighting, and performance. Of course, Nintendo could sacrifice less with better hardware, but it is like other games on more powerful systems put all of their eggs on the latter and skimp out on interesting gameplay systems. Most gameplay revolves around stats and watching numbers go up. Of course, Nintendo isn't the only one who are making games with interesting systems, nor are they the first.You can have systems at the expense of texture quality, lighting, performance, etc etc everything has a cost.
Theres a reason TotK looks like a PS2 game…
If devs wanted to do a physics heavy game on current consoles they absolutely could. While its a marvel I wish people would stop the hyperbole, yes its cool but its no more impressive than say the water physics Hydrophobia had like a decade ago, or the seemless dimension hopping in Rift Apart more recently.
