To be fair, those two do quite different things. The one is the configuration for the (host name) resolver, whereas the other is a configuration for generic name services (which encompasses many other things, like user names, protocol names... you name it). So nsswitch is "outside" as seen by the resolver. Of course, one might envision one highly-integrated naming service doing "all of that", and that was probably Sun's original vision. But things like the DNS are complex (and important) enough that they develop a life of their own. The usual balance between integration and granularity which makes the engineer's bread and butter, I guess.
