Horizon's commercial success is important for more reasons than just petty fan arguments about which console is best. It is very rare for female-centric video games to obtain commercial success, and less common still for ones that treat their female protagonists with actual respect to sell in the millions. The result of Horizon's success as a new IP will likely be the realization on the part of many other developers that there's a real market for games about women and the according creation of more as a result.
(Sony does have some bragging rights in that connection at this particular moment though.)
