The problem with this thread is that you take your opinions, some really blurry sources (that are not even first hand sources, or even second hand sources), then merge them and call them facts.
You decide to take as true an anonymous-sourced article that was about an prelaunch and early dev. dev (theres a whole thread about that in this forum) yet you downplay and article about a recent dev that shows that most if not all of those problems were arranged or never existed. When some user reply you and you dont know how to explain that you only tell them to go and read the op again (or a part of it) as if, for your concern, you are already right and they didnt read in the way you wrote it. And you do this constantly

You say "I don't need to read that pile of text to understand that high power allows low power but the opposite is not true.". With that you imply that you have previous knowledge, and that is excelent, but when someone tries to do the same but against you op you do it again, tell them to go and read that part of the op that, acording to you (you dont say it, but you imply it), they just dont undersand. The argument you most use is the guiness records one, you throw it away as if people have not read/undertand it and you continue; let me bring a counter argument of some user, this time with all respect
The Guinness book relies on facts (i.e. fastest car speed officially recorded, most number of hotdogs eaten in X minutes). Most importanly, it limits itself to facts, it doesn't try to link facts with each others, it doesn't try to explain reality, it stops before that. You comparaison with the Guinness book doesn't make sense since you are trying to explain reality.
And using the quantitative measure of ''Effort/time/money'' to qualitatively analyse games is misleading since the quality of a particular game is not determined by the amount of ''Effort/time/money'' put into it, notwithstanding you even knowing that amount.
You also downplay others opinions and articles, but your sources are: An image (sourceless one, already have been searching for it), a blog entry about the pre 90's nintendo (sourceless again, but thats not bad if we consider that is a BLOG) that actually conclude with "I personally think that the inherent risks of a single system market are sufficient to warrant concern if the industry becomes dominated by one company again." that actually has more to do with the actual state of ps4, but lets continue, you also have a source about the lets play in youtube and nintendo not allowing it, wich you yourself say that it has damaged themselves more tha anything and only covers your op's 3.2, and an article from eurogamer, doubted and called "clickbait" from others developers (something i cant deny or probe personally), no more sources (you didnt quote anything in your op also) and yet you claim that most if not all of your arguments are facts or are "backed up"
Im going to do a final quote from a user up there,
You want us to see things your way like it's the only logical way to see things.
