Your first mistake is trying to align Sony with Android just so you can try have them Compete with Windows and MS when thats just not the case.
You also fail to see your own arguments fall apart pretty easy and ill explain one last time before i leave you to it.
See your looking at this from a very biased type of view "Sony+Andoid OS vs MS+Windows 10 OS", when this is not the case. No matter how much some try to push it, so they can try have an argument against why Sony wont allow their store on Windows OS. And yes that does include Windows 10 since this is now the Windows OS going forword and what will work with the most devices just the same as Android 6 (I think) is the new Android OS going forword until the next one.
MS wants their own OS on phones for the simple reason as thats what they do, they dont want you to use googles OS they want you to use theirs!.. Sony on the other hand dont have their own OS to push. But you keep saying how Sony has Android phones and android in their TV's etc, but trust me if Sony thought they could just pop a version of the PSVita OS, or something like it in their TV's and phones they would of! (And using your logic this is what they should be doing).
The only reason Sony is using Android OS is cos like you say its got a lot of users and they dont need to pay a license to do this. Fact is Google made a good OS for such things, and companys can use that OS without needing to pay google or MS or Apple a cent, so why wouldnt Sony use it in their TV's??.
But if we go by your logic, Andoid is still just as much a threat to their console if not more so then Windows or PC's. But you keep trying to deny this fact (Even if it is using your logic) by using the "Sony uses android in their tv's and has apps on there". But using your Logic they shouldnt!.
What Sony would of done (Using your logic), is took Linux and build their own OS from it or put the same OS as the PSVita in their TV's and Phones to help their own systems grow. Just like Google did for Andoid, they wouldnt be using or helping Android and in return the google playstore to grow (Using your logic).
But facts is Money talks and bullshit walks. Some people seem to think that them companys all hate each other, when they are all only in it for the money.
Another thing you fail to see is that the great thing about being a PC gamer is we are not stuck with "One" OS, and this is where your argument "Do you really think Sony wants a PC under your TV" falls apart.
If Android OS became the main gaming OS tomorrow, i could simply just install it on my PC and dual boot into it along with whatever other OS i wanted to use. Since like you say its an Open OS, its not locked to any system. So you see by Sony supporting Android they are in return supporting PC, since Android systems are PC's just the same way as Linux systems are!.
This also goes against your "People be like why buy a PS4 when you can buy a PC and play MS and PS exclusives" reason for why Sony wouldnt do it, like i said above PC users could still do this. it would just mean Dual Booting 2 OS's.
And also by supporting Windows doesnt only mean a company has to support "Just Windows 10" like you try say. Only thing thats locked to Windows 10 is the windows 10 Store. Nothing stopping Sony from releasing their store on any version of Windows just like Steam, and in return would benafit more from doing this, much more then MS locking their Store to just Windows 10 devices..
So why your trying to make it look like a company can only support Windows 7-8.1 or Windows 10?, what runs on Windows 7 will also run on windows 10. No matter how much you try make it look like The Windows market userbase is split its just not the case. Its no different then using Android 4.2 or Android 5 etc.
Then you also try saying "Why would Sony support PC now when they sold off their PC assets" ROTFL!!!.
You do know Sony was in real dangure back then, when they where selling off assets, and letting staff go left right and center right??.
Fact is, their Laptops or gaming PC's wasnt selling enough for them, and Daylight studios or whatever they are called now didnt really produce any worthwhile big selling games since Everquest 2, and was taking far too long to finish other ones.
Its like all the PC Studios MS let go, sometimes studios are just not worth it.
But no matter how much you try to paint them a like in your head, Closing down a pretty much non profit, maybe even losing money PC Manafacturing section and Studio (That also builds games for PS4), is clearly not the same thing as Sony building a Store that can be used on any device. Be that a Windows 7,8,10 OS, Linux OS, Android OS and whatever other OS you want to name. But even if Sony did lock their Store to just "One" of them OS's it still wouldnt matter since any of them OS's can be used on PC's..
Like i said, if we use your logic for why Sony wont allow their store on a Windows device they also shouldnt support Google with Android, since in return this also helps the Google store. And thats already where everyone gets their games and it works on every Android device and version right from the start not just the latest version like Windows Store., so this is a bigger threat then Windows 10 and its Store that only works on Windows10.
See, It works for Sony to corner the PC Gaming market before MS and it works well, since their Store can support many more devices. So im sure you can see how this works in their interests. At the end of the day Sony has more Stake in getting their games and services to work on as many devices as possible then worrying about if google or Ms's os is number one.
