Admittedly that one is harder to excuse. But I think the idea is, you should never want to take this outside your house. That's why it's literally two halves of a controller slapped onto either side of a cheap tablet. Convenient portability was not a concern.

Making this a streaming device also means you might buy one without owning a PS5.

I think that last one would be what they're aiming for.

It's no longer Xbox vs PlayStation. It's PSN vs GamePass.

Sony absolutely wants you to buy a Playstation. They're running the same strategy they had for the PS1. It worked great then, it worked better on PS2, it floundered on PS3... and ever since then it's been a charade. But it's a charade that prints money. So long as they pretend games are made for their hardware, and it would obviously be ridiculous to suggest running them anywhere else, they can convince you to sink $500 into brand loyalty.
