We absolutely should care about Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo being transparent and supportive of developers.
The fact is... Sony communicated *nothing* to developers and continued to sell dev kits to developers right up to the announcement.

That's shitting on those who build games to make your platform better. - That is how you loose developers to your competitors in the future.

They continued to sell dev kits past 2019? Proof? Or is that just something you invented?

This article was published a week ago, and it says:

"To make matters worse, the studio bought a new PS Vita developer kit through Sony just last month, with no warning about the looming closure. Some bigger-name developers (who asked to remain anonymous) were warned in advance."

This says to me they were indeed selling Vita dev kits until the last possible moment.
