You could, in theory swap the driver IC, assuming the BGA packages are compatible, but at that point you might as well just install a modchip on an OLED.
Forgive my ignorance...you can still hardware mod new switches to boot them into RCM?

Yes, read other posts here and/or Google for more info also, search hwfly chip. Sx chips are gone but other Clones are out there that work with all Switches, even with the new OLED models.

i mean its not a barrier its just the inherit design of oled displays
since there is no backlight to reinforce an oled display the glass reinforces it
this also reduces glare

lcds and oleds on mobile devices have been doing loca glueing for years

v1/v2 and lite all have a noticeable issue where the glare is worse because the front digitizer isnt glued to the lcd
this is a mod people have done that you can also buy

its just an adhesive screen protector lmao

NINTENDO puts a barrier to screen fixes, but someone seems to have cracked it https://kasynparts.com/product/nint...-surface-lens-protective-cover-adhesive-film/

egamephone is known for advertising product here on gbatemp, obviously what he said is misleading.
