Dehumanizing people who recognize the power of overwhelming market share is a lot worse than pointing out the power of overwhelming market share.
Folks will shit on Alan Wake II for only releasing on EGS, like that's obviously the only reason it's not selling well... and then refuse to consider the implications of that claim. I have led people by the nose through what it means when there's only one store that really matters, and developers are generally screwed if they can't or won't sell through that one store.
