What made Nintendo go with flat cards rather than optical discs for Switch?

Yes. The PSN web store didn't exist when digital games first came out on the PSP. They can also be purchased and loaded via a PS3, which is faster and more convenient than using the slow 802.11b from the PSP itself. Awkward, but functional.

 

Somewhat similarly, you can't buy an Xbox 360 game from the Xbox One store, even though you can browse their backwards compatible games there. You need to use a 360 or the web store.

Well, I just noticed it last night, so I doubt it.

It looks like you are right. I just checked a known B/C game (DOOM 3 BFG). It comes up on search but it says it's not available to purchase. However, 360 games actually listed on the Xbone storefront can be purchased fine. Even that was broken a while back.
