Thing is this thing uses the same cpu as another android device the 3ds and wii u did not so maybe it will be easier to hack it.

Since you two didn't got the joke :
Back in 2011 a flashcard for 3DS got announced as Crown3DS and in the end on their website there was only a bar saying that they are progressing and it was stuck at 72% *that's why the $72 price*
Pretty sad when people quickly forget the history of the homebrew scene. This wasnt even a decade ago.

Thing is unlike the 3ds the switch uses a CPU in an android device meaning it may be able to be rooted.
You don't know what rooting is, do you? Switch is NOT an Android device. CPU doesn't make one. If you were to go that way, then all iPhones are Android devices as well, as they also use ARM CPUs. What MAKES a device an Android one, is running Android system. For a device to be rooted, it would need to run a Linux-based system (which Android is). And it's very unlikely that Nintendo would go for Android, too many security issues.

all Nintendo systems so far have been hacked what makes you think this one won't Nintendo tried to make the 3ds secure and ended up failing. like the other consoles like Xbox and PlayStation required a modchip to be hacked a Nintendo system does not.

PS3 and PSP have CFW.
Xbox (the old one) had some form of CFW (NDURE) and 360 could be JTAG/RHD modded.
Therefore, your argument is completely invalid.
