They revealed BD/SP and PLA in early 2021 just like now with S/V in early 2022. It's a tight schedule they follow. I don't think PLA's legs are getting severely impacted by the announcement specifically. It's Gen 9 releasing this holiday, not giving PLA a single holiday season to itself that it gonna have a negative impact on it's legs.
But it's not like it really matters, since PLA obviously already made massive profit on day 1 and was mainly a stopgap for their open-world games, being not yet fully open unlike S/V.
This is not a case of mismanagement but a case of them prioritizing Gen 9 over PLA.
