So I can only guess the reason why they didn't mention how much more powerful NS2 is compared to NS1, is because it is not that much more powerful?

I would guess only 30 to 50% more powerful

The leaks specs are [1]:

- ARM 8 Arm Cortex-A78C

- GPU: Nvidia T239 Ampere, 12 SM/1534 Cores

- 12 GB of ram.

Compared to Switch 1 [2]:

- ARM 4 Cortex-A57 cores @ 1.02 GHz

- GPU: NVIDIA Maxwell 256 cores

- 4 GB of ram.

It should like it should be a major boost in performance from those specs, like maybe 4x improvement overall?

Of course there are more pixels on this screen, so the amount of GPU per pixel may stay roughly the same.
