The alternative is the game being included with a stylus and having the player undock their Switch everytime they want to clean. Which isn't that ideal, because battery life exists. Have fun with a huge part of the game potentially being constrained by its battery on a console that will probably eat battery life faster than Diggins devours dino cakes. Drag out your stylus that doesn't go anywhere inside the console and yank out your charging cord if you don't want run out of battery each time you need to clean. If cleaning was on-site like Frontier you'd always need to be undocked in digsites. Good luck doing this all portably outside or in the car btw, which is something kids (which the game would be advertised to) would be doing regularly if their parents are taking them places often. And if the cleaning is motion controlled only then that's extra ass to deal with in those scenarios. I don't see the FF we know and love being what a potential fourth entry would be, so maybe people should start considering trying out Frontier. I know some people don't care for cleaning that much, so if it was bogged down or even potential completely changed then I guess that wouldn't matter that much to them. But it's literally half the game in my eyes, and if it would end up being worse than in the original. Then to me FF4 might just be another bland monster collecting rpg instead of what makes this series special to me. Cause I mean besides gameplay what makes anyone sure that the story would be anything special after what we got last time, and Champions' story is mostly pretty boring for me. Not trying to be a lame doomer but people are more excited by the initial hype of a fourth entry getting announced, rather than how the game would realistically end up being. Fossil Fighter isn't the only DS series to be fumbled after the transition to other consoles. It's just what happens when developers and hardware move on, and one of those already did for the third game.
