I agree with you, you should for sure listen to criticism against your principles, and challenge them yourself too. But if they change because "if we didn’t have such a dire X", I wouldn't call it a "principle" anymore. A principle (for me) would mean that you don't compromise on it "in emergency" but rather that it's something fundamental you believe in, without much reason in many cases.
> because the intent displayed by Nvidia does matter
Yeah, agree again that it matters, but as a gamer myself, I'm afraid it doesn't solve the problem for me. I want to be able to buy graphic cards myself too, and these "fixes" from NVIDIA looks (to me) like posturing without actually try to address the core problem (low supply). I'd love for them to come up with a real solution, that doesn't try to decide how people use their computers, even though I don't want to mine anything myself.
