I just thought they were being cute with their animations. Technically there was a "sliding the thing around like a mouse" minigame back in that 1 2 Switch game (which absolutely should have been a pack in game). I don't have any clue if there's actually any features to speak of, but using one of the joycons like a mouse will require some sort of mouse pad. Well, I'll be totally honest. I use one in bed. I have an actual mouse when I'm in my bed on my laptop, and the mouse pad is... wait for it... my original SNES Mouse mouse pad... because it's stiff plastic that provides a firm flat surface unlike every other mouse pad I own.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
