If Norway could operate it's F-16 over mountains and very hostile terrain it might in fact work for the Swiss as well. Plus the Swiss have a history of buying maxed out and perfected end of the line aircraft for some good price. For pure air superiority missions the agile Falcon might still be good enough. However it seems to not be included in their final selection.
