You don't have to, switch 2 will be hacked next day by mario and zelda fanboys.
There's going to be no emulators look what Nintendo has done to switch one emulators. They are not going to allow switch 2 emulators to gain traction.
Don't underestimate the power of the whole world against small japanese company. If they won't be able to hack it without accessing hardware spec they will hack Nintendo servers and get all the hardware spec. World will always find the way to fuck corporation that closes it's software / hardware.
We still don't have software-only exploit for switch 1 , even then only certain serial numbers hackable
I thought you could software-only hack the very first Switchs?
No, on those older versions you have to short two pins of the right joycon slot to enter a factory mode, where you can then push a payload from another device, usually a PC. Restarting the console undoes the unlock, so you have to push the payload again
