Look, it's a very simple rhetorical device and you're not a particularly savvy reader for not acknowledging such usage. (´・ω・｀)

I honestly cba to specify Sony Interactive Entertainment LLC, the U.S. side of the SIE Group and a subsidiary of Sony Group K.K., when it has a big fucking sign outside its San Mateo HQ that says PlayStation, has multiple divisions and services all branded PlayStation, lists itself as PlayStation on job-seeking sites, and has employees that literally say "I work at PlayStation" on the Internet. It is perfectly cromulent within the industry to refer to Sony and PlayStation interchangeably for one of a few entities that is in fact neither. (´・ω・｀)
