Need I remind anyone that there's still the risk of the digital only console breaking, you having to buy a new system, but when you go to download the game again it's de-listed from the service. There's nothing to stop that from happening.

And if the more brittle cartridge breaks? Blu-ray discs are nearly indestructible, especially compared to CD's and DVD's. Besides, games that old may not work anyway, GTA V, for instance, required a particular firmware update on the PS3 to even start, there's no saying whether games will work on old consoles when support is dropped and there are no more updates. This is especially so with more modern games and consoles.
