For some people the speed is worth the money, for others it isn't

I started gaming with Nintendo's Game&Watch handhelds, Timex 2068, PC MS-DOS 3.3, Amiga, and so on, so I do understand something about upgrading hardware for speed, or deal with what one has at home.

I have been partially wanting one for the new one for a couple of the games, but then all four of my existing joy-cons on my Switch 1 started to have drift or other issues. So that sort of halfway saved me some money towards something I already wanted.

Though I sadly learned afterwards that you could send in controllers with drift and Nintendo would fix it for free.

Yep. They'll do anything but build their controllers with hall effect joysticks.
