they don't understand humans, or computers, or business, or laws
What do they understand? Money!
Sometimes not even money. Microslop was left holding the bag when they jacked up the price of Gamepass and suddenly it became unaffordable for a lot of customers, and spent billions on a lemon. Sony is actively alienating their supporters, rejecting their largest market, and going all-in on a game that can't even reach five thousand daily concurrent players on Steam because they've also already spent billions on a lemon. Bad calls and sunk costs all around.
You'd think they'd understand tech at the bare minimum. But slashing your team of highly technical people who made engines for almost 30 years sure disproves that notion.
I don't know about all that, didn't they develop Windows just to have a platform to play FreeCell Solitaire?
No, it was a GUI designed on top of MS-DOS specifically to import Minesweeper from IBM OS/2.
And yet, they will make billions more because gamers don't care. They will keep buying their slop and using their slopware.
Gamers do care, they are buying less of their slop and using their slop ware way less
