The issue is simple: people want to be able to play with others independent of platform. The issue has become a very prominent one ever since Sony's adamant opposition to crossplay may have resulted in their hijacking Fortnite accounts.

I get that but what is all the anti-consumer crap though? It’s never been an issue, “oh well X company doesn’t support that so I will buy it on something else”. There are endless issues that end up like that, why so militant all of the sudden? Because of fortnite? Lol

It's an issue now after PS4 owners purchased a Switch and tried to access their Fortnite account on the Switch only to find out that Sony has hijacked the account.

 

It's not only bull that it has happened at all but also cause for concern for any other third party accounts that go anywhere near Sony's network.
