Exclusion of an extra front hdmi port for psvr, removing the need for the extra box, is much more of an issue.

Having an extra port doesn't remove need for the extra box, because the box is doing processing work, which HDMI port does not do.

The extra processing is for 3D audio and splitting the hdmi signal into VR and second screen output. Reserving some of that extra gpu power for that task would have saved costs in a bundle. MS did it with Kinect to bring the cost down. Since PSVR can already work on ps4, there should still be plenty extra gpu left over after adding those two tasks.
