It makes no sense. This is listed as a switch game on speedrun.com. Not everyone has a few hundred dollars on hand to get an n64. And even if I did, I wouldn’t buy an n64 anyways. If the switch version somehow is different, because of something like frame rate or something like that, just make a category for switch runs. I’m just confused.

Switch runs are classified as emulator, because the reduce in lag is comparable to emu

Switch runs are thrown into the VC category because the N64 produces a lot of lag, so therefore people playing on the N64 would be at a severe disadvantage. If you want to do runs on switch, you can only submit all cups runs.
