They definitely have their place in the big tent, but having been swing voters themselves, they believe that all swing votes think like they do. When in fact today's swing voters are less wealthy, less educated and much much more dissatisfied with the status quo than the typical never-Trumper.

That is absolutely a fair point, but I don't think it applies to all the Never Trump/Third Way types. Sarah Longwell for example spends a ton of her time doing research on what actual swing voters think and is pretty clear in acknowledging it's messy.
