The best description I have seen of the issue is this:
"My account is originally a PC account. I bought the $150 Save the World on the PC. And Battle Passes. I linked it to PSN once to check out the game on the PS4 and now I am forever locked out of Switch and Xbox. This is a Sony policy that Epic is shackled with"
Posted on Twitter in a looooong chain of outrage. Basically, if you link to PSN with your Epic Account EVEN ONCE, you. are. fucked.
You can freely move your account between Switch, Xbone, PC, and mobile. Touch PS4 and you're screwed. All your stuff is trapped on PS4 (for consoles). This is Sony. End of story. They used their market dominant position to coerce an anticonsumer deal with Epic.
Edit: added some clarification
