So they’ll most likely decide to completely remove features from the Xbox releases rather than try to get them to work on S, which will lead to worse gaming options on the Xbox. Which Sony will absolutely love.
Which isn’t to say that Sony hasn’t been actively trying to ruin their reputation all by themselves over the last 1-2 years. This whole console generation has mostly been about both companies getting just a little too comfortable and screwing over their customers in the process.

The strength of consoles as a development target is that there is only a single hardware configuration you need to support.
Microsoft squandering that advantage in order to hit a lower price point was a gift to Sony that will keep on giving.

Oh trust, I’m complete aware of how badly Sony has been effing it up, so much that I’ve gone from being a strictly PS console gamer to a PC gamer.
They could have cheaped on the soc, reduced some minor detail rendering.
Screwing with ram size is moronic.
RAM feels like it’s the one thing they really shouldn’t have skimped out on, because that’s the one that’s going to affect longevity the most.
While also being one of the least expensive components, if the trend for consoles follows the price patterns for pc parts.
