It is necessary to the PS3 getting a foothold in this gen. I didn't have a PS2 when I bought my PS3, and that was a huge factor. There was about a year of games that I missed out on the PS2 which basically made me look the other way on their currently small library.
For the record I'm a huge PS3 and Sony supporter. But it would be hard to support a decision like that. Maybe it will have low impact, but I doubt it.
