And? You and everybody else, the reason BC is requested is so if you want to finish an old game, or play with friends who haven’t upgraded you can.
Surely MORE games to play regardless of which gen they’re from is a great thing to have?
Also means you don’t have to have another console plugged in if you still have a backlog. And if you still own a lot of games (especially digital) you know you still have access.
It’s also usefull when you’ve played all the launch games you want to play and there is nothing else you want to play for a while.

“. But what’s stopping you from playing them right now on the consoles they were made for? Your PS4 works I assum”
Here’s an example, I love Overwatch, my friends love Overwatch. Without BC I would have to keep a PS4 plugged in to play it as not all of my friends want/can get a PS5 at launch.
I already have my Switch, my Xbox, my PS3 and now my PS5 plugged into my TV.
Somethings gotta give.
With BC, no problem, I can carry on playing with my friends and enjoy next gen games on one system.

Neither will the hardware.. With games being digital it’s more important, especially since we can’t trade them in.
