Ah, yes. The “let’s bloat our game size to bully other games off your SSD so you’ll be reluctant to ever uninstall it, because reinstalling it would be a big pain, that way you’ll play it indefinitely and give us extra money in micro transactions” strategy.
I don’t think that’s really the strategy at play. It seems more like they are under the impression that it’s not their problem and gamers will do what they can to play.
I would say they just don’t care but the above line is a welcome addition.
