"If it takes losing a major exclusive franchise of theirs to learn that they have a lot more to lose by trying to appease non-gamers with their puritanical bullshit, then so be it, and it'll be to Nintendo, no way will it go to MS."

Considering that the Nintendo audience is hardly the type to buy these sort of games, how about no ? PC would arguably be a better bet than either of the other two console platforms since a demographic already exists those niche of a niche games ...

I'll credit you that it does suck that Sony's corporate culture has become about pandering to the social justice culture when it hurts Sony customers the most since their primarily the demographic to buy these games ...

They'll probably just censor Catherine if they do and be done with it all the while keeping Persona ... 

I think you'd be really surprised. Shin Megami Tensei has been kept mostly Nintendo exclusive, while Persona has been mostly PlayStation. If 1 can find a home in one system, there's no reason the other can't. Especially because Persona Q sold very well on the 3DS,  and Persona Q2 is doing well in pre-orders and should do good numbers for a 3DS game in 2018. And Persona 5 is one of the more heavily requested 3rd party ports for the Switch (A may be a little bias towards this point because that's THE port I want the most.) It doesn't seem like the Nintendo audience has any problem at all with those sort of games, or at least that series, and would be more than willing to buy if the game looks great and really enjoyable (i.e. Octopath Traveler).

Even if what you say were true and the dedicated, die-hard Nintendo fans may not be into Persona games, Persona fans certainly are, and they'll go to whichever system has the game they want.
If Atlas decided to pack up the series and move it to Nintendo, the fans would go with them. If Persona 6 is a Nintendo Switch exclusive, most, if not all the people that bought a PS4 for Persona 5 are gonna buy a Switch for Persona 6, if they don't have one already.
It's like that old saying, one man's loss is another man's gain.
In that case, Sony's loss would be Nintendo's gain.
