TLDR it's a mix of nintendo requirements and studio time.
"The short version: Approaching launch and running out of time and resources, we were surprised to learn that our game would require some level of censoring in all regions, not just the few we were already planning for," AdHoc wrote. "In a difficult spot, we decided to use a single Switch build that complied with Nintendo's strictest regional rating. This led us to deliver a more censored version of Dispatch than Switch players were expecting.
"The censorship itself wasn't the only problem, though. Those of you who wishlisted, pre-ordered, or bought Dispatch on Switch did so based on what you'd seen in trailers, previews, and reviews from other platforms. The problem was we didn't make it clear enough, before you spent your money, that the version you were buying was materially different from that game. And for that we're truly sorry.
"But you stuck with us. And the good news is that the success you all brought Dispatch gave us the opportunity to make this right, so we invested development time into creating the Switch version you all should have gotten in the first place."
