Not in 10+ years when you can't download the rest of the game from the servers because they don't put the whole game on the cartridge anymore. Not to mention patches and DLC aren't on the cartridge either.
They do put the full game on the cartridges, for example I can play TOTK on a new switch with just the cartridge without ever going online.

The only games that will be fully available on the cartridge are the ones explicitly singled out. There are 10. How is that significant?
