That doesn't sound right. Sounds like spiel used to justify why PS4 couldn't work with PS3 games or why PS2 tech was removed from PS3 but PS1 emulation was left in.
BC helps with the transition period a lot. I would love to be able to play some of my PS3 games even now without having to turn it on again, plus i wouldn't have had to buy Minecraft twice. It also helps with lack of library at the start of a gen, people knowing they can just buy older games to play on their new console because they work knowing new games will come soon.
Sony and MS will only benefit from adding BC because of the reasons above. Having one library which works over gens can surely be nothing but a good thing as it can get people to buy your console without worry early on instead of waiting until a decent library is released for it.
