And you can usually snag a used copy for even less without losing out on anything. That’s the main reason why I would never get a digital only console. But also, I‘m primarily a PC gamer, so I’m tied to digital only but at least I‘m not bound to a single store.

I think the key is that you have access to markets. The markets can determine the price rather than it being set to some desired value. Whether that’s a used market, or PC where you have the option of multiple stores and sometimes buying direct from the developer.
