Is there a danger that people are giving the PS4 too much of a free pass?

Theres every reason to assume it... There is no evidence to suggest it. There is no reason to assume they will follow suit,

Is this enough proof to start assuming?

Nope, because the Ps3 has it too... it's called online pass. Since Sony isn't requiring online like MS there would be no way Sony could enforce this.

And who says this is the same as online passes? Yoshida dodged the question. Until Sony absolutely confirms this, there's a lot of room for speculations.  

You don't need online to ensure you won't be able to play used games. The disc itself can do it, the console itself (without connecting to internet) can do it. There are a lot of ways around this. There's also the rumor that says the PSN will no longer be free. 

Again, this are all assumptions, nothing is set in stone yet. It might happen or it won't, we simple can't say atm.
