What some people here don't get is exactly that, they were going against all leaks with the "iT's BeCaUsE nInTeNdO" mentality regarding the hardware that I don't get, of course the Switch 2 was always this powerful and it's as much as many posters were saying it would be just based on numbers.
Not as powerful as XSS but close enough in terms of GPU with weaker CPU that's still way above last gen, what we didn't think would happen is that Switch 2 IQ is better basically all the time, so if a game runs at the same frame rate in both I think they'd trade blows (XSS would have some better graphical features while Switch 2 would have better IQ)
