You analogy is pretty bad, VHS is a format that requires a reworking of the whole device, where ps4 being able to play ps1 or ps2 is software related. More suitable analogy would be if you want your Blu-ray player be able to play CDs or DVDs, and most people would say yes. 

It is accepted because the market leader doesn't do it, however it is something that the consumers would welcome. If it wasn't a feature people wanted, they would not rerelease old ps2 digitally. 

 

Doesnt all BR players play DVDs?

 

Yes, and thats why he went with the VHS Analogy. 

Add: Large percentage of them do.
