Kinda thinking I'll pick up one of these near Black Friday, and just get a Switch 2 now...
I have read that it's cultural related. Many European and/or non-English-speaking countries place their symbol after the number.
As for the second comment, in some countries the currency symbol comes after the number. Perhaps you were unaware of that. Why you think that it's necessary to insult people is an entirely different issue. Just a tip: this behavior makes you rude and under-informed in this particular matter. That isn't an insult. That is a fact.

1. It requires a lot of power. I had to get a new docking station, batteries, and chargers. The Lego can use up to 90W of power. Ideally it should have a 100W charger. My docking station only handled 60W…it might not have been a big issue, but I upgraded. As for regular chargers. I was using 65-100W chargers for multi device charging. You will need a 140W charger to handle another power hungry device and the Lego at the same time.
2. I had to get a new "gaming bag". It wouldn't fit in the bag that I was using for my Steam Deck. (In many cases this wont be an issue. However my old bag wouldn't work.)
3. Legion Space! Grr. I had to disable it. I use Steam as a launcher. Legion Space got in the way.

Way slower than the Legion Go (1st gen) and the ROG Ally (1st gen) Z1 Extreme. Might even be slower than than the Z1 non-extreme version... 🤔
AMD purposely deceiving people with naming schemes. 🤦 ♂️
