That was pretty good reasoning. But you forgot number six, which (definately is one of the biggest factors and Sony even admitted it themselves) is to boost PS3 software sales. People liked to play their PS2 games upscaled, and replace faulty PS2:s to play their old games/new PS2 games, instead of buying PS3 games.
If PS3 would have kept the BC, it would propably have bigger hardware sales, but software sales may had been lower.
