not really...
it is pretty simple to be honest. if you want to sell a product with something which you see as essential part of the future of your product you sell it with every sold unit. that isn't anti-consumer since everyone who will like this feature in the next 5+ years will profit from the decision to sell kinect with every unit.
consumers who are against it can obviously buy another console but consumers who like it will be very thankful that they will get more support for it because of the decision to have kinect with every sold console.
is it consumer unfriendly that everyone has to pay for a touch pad and rumble in a ps4 controller if a controller without that would be much cheaper? or that you have to pay for different rumble motors in the xbox one controller? no, you put it in/on every controller if you want to see support for it as a company. the touch pad would be already dead before it really starts if you would have to buy ds4 controllers with touch pad separately. sure, that is a much cheaper problem but still, many people would be fine without it.
