No, he's as delusional as you are. I'm sure Sony appreciates the dedication. Maybe they'll give you guys an award some day for your years of hard work.
But, no, I'm not convinced. I already said they could have dabbled with it just like Nintendo, Sega and, reportedly, even Microsoft have done. That's not surprising. For them to have supposedly been working on it in a focused and earnest manner, however, and be this far behind Oculus simply doesn't make sense. Again, it either suggests massive ineptitude on Sony's part, or they weren't really as far along as they tried to lead us to believe.
You have to be completely detached from reality if you believe Sony wasn't trying to get their VR device out to market as soon as possible. Do you think they wanted to be upstaged by Oculus? To have their thunder stolen and be the third one out the gate? (And by no small amount of time). The Oculus Rift is the first serious consumer VR device in decades. It is coming out 7 months ahead of PSVR and has been ahead at every major step of the way--from announcement, to public demonstrations, to dev kits, to official name reveal, to price/release date announcement, to actual launch.
Claiming Sony doesn't care because the PC is a different market is absurd, and is particularly rich coming from Sony fanboys like yourselves when all we've heard since the PSVR price announcement is how it's going to crush the Rift and Vive. If they're not in the same market then obviously they're not competing. You can't have it both ways.
In any case, there's no doubt that Sony would have loved to have been first at all those milestones. The fact that they weren't is simply because they couldn't. Either due to ineptitude or due to being too far behind. I personally think it was more the latter.
