It certainly opens up the door to this, which is what nintendo is worried about.
But homebrew is not piracy.
Technically what is described in these posts aren't homebrew but a way to enable a homebrew community.

This is an exploit to allow the nintendo switch to become a more open platform, albeit an unsupported open platform.

Basically.
PC>Consoles.

The nintendo switch will be the next PSP.

that homebrewing isnt worth it on a 400 dollar console

[auzman466]

that homebrewing isnt worth it on a 300 dollar console

why not

[Adrenaline]

why not

the risk of bricking and it voiding warranty (and also being pretty much useless)

You only end up bricking your console if you don't follow the damn directions or follow dipstuff youtube tutorials.
Always follow installation instructions directly from the source.

umm so what about voiding your warranty and it having no real uses

Maybe not for you, but obviously enough people think it is for it to be a thing. Get over it chump

No uses... for you.
