I would call this behavior solipsistic: the maker only engages with a caricature of their audience that happens to perfectly confirm their preconceptions, while handwaving away very simple and logical objections from the people in the room.

The weirdest part is them dressing it up as "you deserve better" when they are clearly ignoring their existing paying customers and retroactively stealing back content that was published and paid for.

The excuse that people didn't discover the toggle to skip disturbing scenes is ridiculous: just show it on first launch.

I suspect and wonder whether superhot vr was simply forced to remove this content to get first party promotion on certain platforms, and the reason it sounds illogical is because of Sinclair's maxim: they act like they don't understand because their income depends on not understanding it.
