Why Do People View the MS Acquisition of ABK as a "Good Thing?"

This deal will also force Sony to offer more consumer friendly services and maybe add more day 1 titles on their own subscription services. 

I don't understand this narrative, really. To me, SONY offers the best subscription service for the best price, that is PSN Essential, great monthly games that I get to keep, they also do not rotating in and out. 

I play mainly on the Switch, my PS5 is my secondary machine, I have accumulated a library of over 400 games paying the bare minimum for PSN Plus essential, this includes all sorts of AAA titles, including FF7r, FF15, GoW reboot, Horizon, the list is literally endless. On the other hand, MS deliberately killed off its most basic tier in an attempt to push more gamers to higher priced subscriptions. If I had both options available to me on the PS5, I would still go for PSN Essential. I don't go through games like underwear like some of you do here, which is why I don't like the rotating in and out aspect, I get to play games at my own pace. To me, it seems like MS needs step up its game and be more consumer friendly to those who don't want to pay for higher tier subscriptions.
