I am not a console gamer. But afaik the extra money you have to pay goes not towards Larian. It's a toll that Sony collects for allowing the game to be released on their system.
I return you get easy to use hardware for a somewhat decent price.

They could also release a physical copy without the sony extra but why would you bother not being abusive. People will buy it anyway

Nope, they can't. Because they have signed contracts that allow them access to the build tools for Playstation, and require them to pay the fee in return. There is no way to avoid it, becuase Sony will sue you if your "pirate- relase" a game for Playstation.

If you want to see an abusive party here, your finger must point to the Console developer.
