I'm just asking that they reflect players' choices. To most players, Kassandra was Deimos, not the Eagle Bearer. If she was so clearly the canon choice, they should have had the courage to feature her alone. The animus was ambiguous, so it seems disingenuous to act like Kassandra was definitive.
I really wished they gave the option to have Alexios featured. I don't know why Ubisoft would give us the option of protagonist selection, and then act like he doesn't exist. I spent 150 hours with Alexios (the option a majority of players picked, by Ubisoft's own admission). I want to see him, not Kassandra.
I'm giving each of your bullet points a numerical value for clarity here.
1) While we can only speculate, the brief glimpses shown during June's PlayStation Showcase showed us a rather Sony-esque "stream of sparkles" and a "PS button" prompt. One can only imagine it will a refined iteration of PS4's Orbis OS, but we'll have to wait and see. I can't imagine an OS changing anyone's mind either way, though.
4) True, not a lot known here, but, if it did absolutely nothing more than what the current share button, I can't imagine it dissuading anyone from the system.

Re: Soapbox: The Week After PS5's Showcase, Sony Told Us Nothing About Its Next-Gen Console
I'm giving each of your bullet points a numerical value for clarity here.
1) While we can only speculate, the brief glimpses shown during June's PlayStation Showcase showed us a rather Sony-esque "stream of sparkles" and a "PS button" prompt.

2) https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/09/99_percent_of_ps4_games_can_be_played_on_ps5_says_playstation_boss (99% of PS4 games backwards compatible, assuming both physical and digital versions)
https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/09/official_ps5_page_mentions_faster_and_smoother_frame_rates_for_select_ps4_games (So we can expect a "boost mode" similar to the PS4 Pro)
3) https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/09/ps5_media_remote_includes_netflix_youtube_spotify_and_disneyplus_buttons (So we know that the big streaming services will all likely be on board. I think that's good enough for anyone at launch.)
4) True, not a lot known here, but, if it did absolutely nothing more than what the current share button, I can't imagine it dissuading anyone from the system.
5) https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/06/destruction_allstars_brings_vehicular_carnage_to_ps5 (Obviously a "battle royale/arena vehicular combat game.)
https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/06/sackboy_a_big_adventure_is_a_full_blown_platformer_heading_to_ps5 (Obviously a cooperative, 3D platformer)
6) https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/09/this_could_be_the_first_ps5_compatible_ssd (Frankly, as per Sony's indication, I wouldn't expect any compatible drives at launch. We'll all just have to suffer with 825 GB)
The only real question is when is all this whinging going to stop.
