A quick search indicates this not to be true. Playstations are just hardware you can't fix yourself when they break.

That's not what we're talking about . I'm taking about UX.

You said "the console experience". Surely that covers all aspects of using a console, not just the ones you find satisfying?

What are we even talking about here?
How about Macs , you can't really do anything to fix a MacBook Air if it just doesn't want to turn on the next day.
Same thing with gaming laptops. Do we really need to have a true Scotsman argument, is real PC gaming only done on a tower desktop PC that you built yourself. And for the HN crowd of course this needs to be running a customized installation of Arch Linux.
The console experience is still much easier. My Xbox Series S controller won't even sync to my PC right now.
I even brought the USB controller adapter since Bluetooth wasn't working. I have to find my old Xbox One controller.
On my PS4 I turn the controller on. Select the game, I'm done
It just works.
I prefer PC gaming , but lately I just want to chill on my coach, playing Crash 4.
I guess it's possible via unholy levels of customization to get a PC to wake on input via gamepad. And then open a GUI with full gamepad support.
* BUT STEAM DECK*
Great, PC gaming without Gamepass or official support for anything not on Steam.
