Nintendo somehow keeps finding a way to make this worse

I have both DLCs

So then you still get to play them. The only people this affects are new buyers, which... scans internet will be approximately nobody, given the raging hate-boners on display. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But if I buy the upgrade pack, what will happen to the DLCs when I play on the Switch 2?

Then you'll play the DLC with the updated graphics etc. There's nothing mystical about the upgrade pack - it's just engine optimizations to let the game run natively on new hardware, probably some revamped textures, etc. The base game has been DLC-aware since the DLC was released. Having the DLC doesn't change the game code, it just makes the extra content accessible.
