As mentioned in the article, it's sacred to the highest tier of PlayStation's new subscription service, so they won't remove it.

A service can change at any time.

OtherOS came with the system in the box, and Sony tore it out after consumers had already purchased the system.

A subscription service, they can just end it and refund people's money and call it a day. It's absolutely not set in stone.

Unless they decide the revenue from the highest tier is worth leaving it in place. To be determined.

It’s fundamental to their subscription strategy. I would happily bet you $10,000 they don’t pull PS2 support in response to this.

They also lost a class action lawsuit over OtherOS, needing to pay people that used it $55.

With PS2 emulation, I suspect far more people do use it and it would be much, much easier to prove you used it. This could lead to a huge settlement against them.
