If it's anything like how the Wii was basically a GameCube it may not even be all that hard to rework existing switch emulators to work with switch 2 games. Given that it's going to have full back compat I bet that's why they went after switch emus so hard. They wanted to halt development as much as possible for as long as possible so it doesn't eat away at their switch 2 sales.

I recall reading something about Nintendo wanting to include Denuvo in the Switch 2. Will be interesting to see whether or not this one's games and consoles are cracked wide open as readily as before.
