Sony had/has the exact same rule; they just don't publicize it. Your point? 

Sony never had this rule.

Directly from Adam Boyes, Sony's VP of developer relations:

In the interest of transparency, I want to share our Dev clause that lists which platforms you cannot release on. pic.twitter.com/cJD46rFKcl

That's not what I was talking about. I meant that Sony has a stipulation that a game that comes to PlayStation platforms late has to have some sort of extra content (typically DLC or some sort of addon that wasn't in the original release). Every single AAA game that came to PS3 late had something extra in the PS3 version. They appear to be a little more relaxed with indies, but the policy still stands, and your average indie game doesn't have DLC anyway so go figure.
