The feature, which is buried at the bottom of Nintendo's patch notes, allows for boosted Switch 1 games when playing in handheld, with performance akin to playing with the console docked.

Valve were the ones that explicitly told Dolphin that Dolphin would need to supply them (Valve) with evidence of an agreement. Nintendo would not have even been aware of it had Valve not independently reached out to them. Dolphin (wisely, again) did not contact Nintendo. "Prevent" has an actual meaning and it's not "have a negative opinion towards".

I don't know why I'm arguing with you, go argue with the Dolphin devs themselves that they are wrong about their own application.
