There's lots of ironies and hypocrisies like for example Sony being the one that touted the Playstation brand as being the central hub for games AND movies, etc. now suddenly acting like Nintendo during the GameCube era when Nintendo was given a lot of grief back then for being "game focused". It's also ironic to spend an hour talking up 4KTV and then release a console that doesn't really do native 4K for games or movies.
And so on and so on.
To be honest who cares if Sony is criticized. Why does it bother some people so much? Microsoft and Nintendo take more than their fair share of criticism all the time, Sony is not exempt from making poor decisions. It happens. Let people vent, not everyone has to love every decision they make. They are just another company.
If the situation was reversed and Sony was making the Scorpio and MS was making the XBox Pro with no 4K UHD support and no native 4K, you can bet Microsoft would be getting blasted for it with lots of "wait for Playstation Scorpio, MS dun goofed again!". Is it the end of the world? No. Should Sony be exempt from any kind of criticism no matter what? That's equally a no.

Agree with this, criticisms happen at Nintendo and Microsoft as well for their own reasons. I don't know why there people are bothered by people criticizing Sony about this other than "Sony can't do wrong".

Sony do plenty of wrong by gamers though, heck this months PSN+ title thread had a number of people upset at the inclusion of Journey because it was pushed on the PS4 during a sale 2 weeks ago, a lot of people bought the game then and got upset about it, what people are vocal about is why it matters to MS/Nintendo fans if the console comes with a drive or not, not that Sony are sainthood in a company, just that they are in the business for a number of generations now and they seem to have a winner in the ps4 and now the ps4pro is a powerhouse for a 2016 eight gen console.
