A very good and much needed rant. You raise a good issue with day 1 patches and the number of homes that don't have broadband in their home.
As a collector, another problem with this 'patch it day 1' garbage is that 10+ years from now, when the servers these patches come from are down or no longer host the patches, these games will revert to being the incomplete, buggy, broken games they originally shipped as. Someone who buys Rime on the Switch in 2030 probably won't be able to get this patch, and the game will forever be broken. This is a big issue for those of us who are collectors and game preservationists.
