I get that always-on internet isn't.. erm.. always on, but what I'm getting at is that we've accepted it in other formats/forms. If you don't explicitly log Steam out to offline mode and the internet dies, guess what? You're screwed out of your Steam library until you're online again.. But we've become accustomed to this and tolerate it. And tether our phones for emergencies.
I'm not trying to say that this is a brilliant idea, just that maybe it's not worth boycotting the console over.
