Sorry, but that argument holds no water whatsoever.
The CONCEPT of so-called "Quick Time Events" is ironic, because the name implies that somehow it is either quickening the gameplay, or adding to it. It does neither. It gets in the way, and makes things needlessly complicated, or in some cases even dumbed down. I would prefer to PLAY a game, and solve a puzzle, and beat a boss on my own, etc., than to have the game tell me when to hit a button, give me a smal window to do it or I fail, etc.
It's just lazy gameplay design. Your implication that some people wouldn't mind it if it were in games exclusive to their console, is kind of pointless. It may be true for some, but I think by and large, a lot of gamers would rather just play the damn game.
