Any of the games that aren't fully on the cart, require a download to even function in the first place.

It's looking like (TBD) that this is how a very large portion of the games are going to be delivered.

That's correct, a large portion of the games available will be unable to be obtained on a banned console (though previously downloaded games will still work). But some still will be, including, crucially, every first-party game, which is what people regularly say they bought a Switch 2 for. So it's not a brick.
