This is going to get too heated if we carry on like this. There's no way to prove either side in this. We can only present anecdotes and then people will interpret them based on their own experiences and beliefs. I've used PCs since the Amiga got superseded. I've known them from the days my mate was faffing around with .bats and LoadHigh trying to get his sound card working with some game, up to now where I built my own development PC. PCs are much improved, but random shit happens. As the family tech guy, I'm the person called on to solve some dumb laptop error and waste hours trying to identify and fix the issue. On fixed gaming hardware, significant problems are a hardware fault. On PC, it's not always. Sometimes some bits don't play nice together, with too many pieces assembled together. I've even had it on prebuilt systems, and you get manufacturer support with no idea how to solve the issue.
Maybe that is defective hardware, a tiny defect somewhere in a zillion components. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Either way, it's not a 'dead system' type you know it needs replacing, but at the user level it's just a random quirk that can't be solved and replacing the entire unit isn't an option because the GPU people blame the OS and the OS people blame the game and the game people say it's a fault of the SSD manufacturer and the SSD manufacturer says check with the GPU people...
Suffice to say, me as someone who's grown up around PCs and has a degree in Comp Sci and writes and debugs software with pretty great problem-identifying and resolution skills, who has no particular attachment to Sony tax and would love a Steam-like gaming OS, I'm still hesitant to swap to PC. You can call me stupid or naive or a liar or prejudiced or clueless or whatever makes you feel happy because your anecdotes don't align with mine - that's my thought process as a consumer and I dare say it's a common thought process and a primary reason why consoles continue to sell and will continue to do so even as the price increases.
