Playstation CEO doesn't play games or else they would know how much more flexible PC gaming is for the user. They are hoping people will slum it with console locked ecosystems and non-moddable games using hardware that never improves.

True, consoles are rapidly approaching being indistinguishable from Kiosk moded, locked down miniature PC's.

Approaching? I would say kiosk mode PC consoles started with Xbox and then PS4 joined the group, Nintendo is what's left.
