The cuts for the Sw/Sh dex were worse than even the most pessimistic predictions

I get the idea of collecting and accomplishing and feeling the achievement of completing everything there is to offer. But this new game doesn't take away anything you have achieved in the past. 

It does since apparently I cant transfer a huge chunk of my competitive mons that Ive  spent a lot of time breeding so that they have the right IVs, natures and stats. And that ive bothered to keep stored in a paid service that now will no longer be supported as far as we know.

Good point but that only affects competitive players. Do numbers exist in that regard? How many competitive players exist? When I'm thinking of a normal distribution then it should only be a fairly small sample of the total sum, while the big junk just plays the game in solo mode with some people trying an occasional online battle here and there. Maybe it's not normally distributed, however. Numbers would be great.

I'll stop defending the game here. I could go on and on but that would look like me trying to make up excuses. I get that you and other competitive players feel robbed, but at the same time I believe that this doesn't concern most players. Let's look what Pokémon Home brings to the table, maybe some problems will be solved then.
