He then plugged in a standard USB mouse, confirming that these can also be used with Switch 2 hardware. When the mouse is plugged in, a message on the screen shows that the mouse is connected and takes priority over the Joy-Con 2’s mouse controls.

Ryu then showed that it was possible to use the USB mouse with the right hand, but continue to use the left Joy-Con 2 with the left hand, meaning all the controller shortcuts are still available even when using a standard mouse.

Yeah it's about use-case. Owning 2 handhelds from the same generation really only makes sense if you collect consoles. I didn't buy a Steam Deck because I got gifted a Switch Lite. I'm covered as far as handhelds go until there are new games I can't play. I would argue most people think this way.
