We didn’t release Switch to be in line with our other platforms as it gave players more time to catch up on their collections. Also, it would never be able to stay in line with PC/mobile/PS4/Xbox due to the limited amount of major updates we are able to make on Nintendo Switch. This means that it is also safer to keep it an update or two behind as it is harder to make fixes on nintendo Switch due to the limited amount of updates that can be made.
I hope this makes sense, and if you want me to clarify further I will do my best.
