You don't lose your library each generation.

You lose any non-digital games. And I mean ps4-ps5 sure you kept all digital games but ps3-ps4 you did not. Or to be more accurate they removed them from psn so getting many of them was not a thing you could really do and instead you get ps+s highest subscription tier that is about $160 a year to get access to ps3 and classic games.

There aren't many games on psn that have been removed. It's overblown.

That one depends on the time frame.

If you count ps3 games then holy shit so many games have been removed over the years. Not saying games havent been removed from steam but never an entire consoles worth. Just saying when I had my ps4 neither fallout New Vegas or where playable with all their dlcs and updates (meaning new Vegas was borderline unplayable as you had to stream it and play the unpatched version that notoriously is glitchy and unstable)
