You have several ideas here. As for a switch node, I too would like an integer switch as an option to the current boolean switch (perhaps a dropdown on the current node to pick Bool/Int). As I see it, a switch is not a "successive operation." You do not do something with each input (as in summing floats), you merely choose one input to send to the output.
The Merge Geometry node already exists. It is a successive operation, perhaps, but unlike a hypothetical math sum node, the order of inputs matters (sometimes).
The idea of successive operations has come up before. There certainly is an audience for this feature (myself included). I like the idea of a single "sum" or "product" node to replace a bunch of add/multiply nodes.
