Actually, you didn't prove anything ...
The "Disc Read Error" that people refer to is when the Playstation or PS2 ended up having a hardware error which prevented the systems from reading any game discs; there were many variations to this problem, some where the PS2 would stop reading games that were on CD/DVD while others couldn't read any game disc. This is quite a different problem from having a disc with a scratch or error that wouldn't read in the system.
Although this problem didn't seem to be as widespread early on as the Red-Ring-of-Death, Sony ignored the problem until a class action lawsuit forced them to deal with it ... They didn't offer a warantee extension out of pocket to ensure that their users had a product with a reasonable lifespan.
