PS3 had BC (first HW and then emulated) and people happily traded it for lower cost.

There's a reason people 'happily traded it' for, but lower cost wasn't the reason. From the WSJ article:

"There’s a catch to the lower price: The new $399 PlayStation model will not play games designed for the PlayStation 2, Sony’s popular older game console. Mr. Tretton conceded that removing that capability, along with a few other features, isn’t dramatically reducing Sony’s cost of manufacturing the console but will instead encourage buyers of the entry-level PlayStation 3 to purchase more games designed specifically for the new system." 

And you though Sony was looking out for your bottom line.

Don't know what you are trying to do on this... but if you read your own post you'll see that they dropped the price and people bought without caring to much about the loss of BC.

Sony only look at their own bottomline.

And since you forfeit the "BC have 0 cost, free lunch" discussion you tried to frame it in a different way?
