How can they leave it up to publishers if it isn't even possible in their system?
What am I missing?

You're not missing anything, it's just a way for Sony guys to excuse the fact that Sony is allowing DRM on their console.
I mean, look at the OP. It is essentially a collection of non-answers and loaded responses that essentially spell out a system where if publishers want to limit your ability to loan/rent games, limit your ability to buy/sell/play used games, and mandate a connection to the Internet, Sony is allowing them to do so. MS simply took it a step further and made it a standard policy on the console.
Best to just wait for E3 or closer to launch for Sony and publishers to fully spill the beans. But it's clear the only people with their "heads in the sand" here are the people shouting about how different this is than Xbone or how it's "just like PS3". It's not. The bottom line is a publisher can do everything they can do on Xbone on the PS4 as well. Sony is allowing it. So it will just be a matter of whether or not the publishers do it.

That's a pretty big difference. There are numerous devs who have come out against a lot of these DRM policies. Based on this and what we already know about the console, there will likely be plenty of games available for those who are against the DRM, be it for practical or moral reasons, on the PS4. As far as I know that's not the case with XBONE. Some games having DRM vs all games having DRM is more than just a talking point.
Good to see another AD fan, btw :P
