Microsoft doesn't count Android and iOS Minecraft accounts in their MAUs, no reason to assume they would for PS4 either. Rather than "desperate tactics", the XBL account is likely just the most practical way to make sure everything you buy and do is accessible on every device. That is, after all, the point of this update. I might be wrong but I think this means PS4 owners won't get the 4k update either.
