PS Now and RE 7 Cloud Version prove that machine power and specs don't matter if you have a capable enough internet connection. All you need is a screen, a controller, and internet. Why require an expensive console?

I have a crazy fast internet connection and PS Now still lags. It's playable, but so much worse than owning the game either physically or digitally.

This is a valid point. Especially when you factor in the fact that there are still plenty of places that do not have internet nowhere near fast enough to allow for streamed games in a playable state. This is what Ubisoft wants to happen, it is not necessarily going to be what is going to happen.
RE 7 Cloud Version proves that we are not ready for this sort of distribution. Even with Japan's fast servers, people are still experiencing latency issues. It also undermines the ability to play games on the Switch portably.
