I didn't read the entire post but your basically saying that its a good thing that the PS3 trojan horsed the Blu-Ray?
I would agree with your point that it helps Blu-Ray sales (though it hasn't broken the stalemate, merely tipped it somewhat) however I wouldn't agree that the Blu-Ray has helped to sell the PS3. This is because it has had a positive and negative effect, it helps sell the PS3 as it is a very affordable Blu-Ray player. It prevents sales of the PS3 through the price increase which while lesser (with the PS3 at $400) now caused bad press at the PS3s launch which has snowballed to cause the current disappointing sales.
So yeah, the PS3 hugely helped Blu-Ray but in my opinion Blu-Ray hugely damaged the PS3.
