Having spent time testing the Switch 2 mouse controls I no longer think it's a gimmick, but it just cannot compare to a gaming mouse | PC Gamer (www.pcgamer.com)

Fair. That's got me wondering, perhaps if you're in a game with Joycon mouse support it might lock into mouse mode. One thing that annoys me about using a Joycon as a mouse is that you have to have it on a horizontal surface - I like using a mouse on all sorts of weird things and at different angles (eg curved sofa arms or my belly) and the Joycon doesn't work for this in UI menus.
