A lot of people give MS credit for things that have nothing to do with them.

Idk what you're talking about. If we're talking about online then the first console to do that was the saturn/dreamcast and the first to fully utilize this was microsoft with xbox live. Microsoft also began the trend of no more specialized hardware from the get go and focused on creating a multimedia device. Everyone else slowly followed suit after them. Like nintendo's the only one who even has true exclusivity and they only change up their ecosystem if their absolutely forced to change or see that it was profitable in the long term.

My obvious point is that the argument that Sony will do something like this simply because Xbox did it is completely asinine.

Decisions like that have way more valid reasons ahead of 'the other guys did it" and despite the clickbait articles, there's no evidence that we're about to see an Xbox port of something like God of War for example.

It's got to be infuriating for Phil to see Playstation poke Call of Duty in the eye (on Steam!) with a game that probably looked equivalent to Redfall on paper.

Phil Spencer probably blocked or delayed a version of Palworld for PS5 with their Gamepass deal as well, this guy is a shameless cunt.

My brain hurts!!!
Phil talks a lot, they purchase some big studios and made them exclusive, now they are releasing some games to other platforms and expect the competition to do the same... their plan to control the industry did not worked, so now they are doing the opposite in hope the competition will help them. wtf...

Haven't you heard. It's ok when MS does it. After all, they're the lovable underdog...
