How is this theory taken seriously when people have other motivators to buy durable goods early even when they know for certain the price will go down but not when?
the theory is about the asking prices charged by the producer, not the purchases made by consumers. After the people you are talking about buy, for whatever reason, what does the price do in the following months.
Why do gamers need protection? Games aren't essential resources. There's zero reason you have to buy a game that doesn't allow users to run servers. Why would you prevent gamers who don't care from buying these games?
I once ran multiple bots on Ancient Anguish that would do simple quests for cash and follow other player to steal their gear if they dropped anything. The bots would then find my main and hand everything over.
The mods teleported my chars into a dungeon and virtually tortured them while trying to get me to admit one person was behind the lot.
