"least of the offenses"
I don't think you're zoomed out far enough. The constraint of physical media will be a deathstroke for consumers.
I don't disagree. In fact I agree fully. But when the industry promotes early access games (digital only) and digital day 1 with physical to follow 3 or 6 months later, it is pushing consumers to digital. So its irrelevant if they do or do not have an optical drive on the console.
