They've yanked movies, and there are reasons (which they won't tell us) they've banned physical delivery of games. It's extremely likely they will yank games in the future.

Movie distribution is a completely different game - the studios and distributors have far more leverage. These decisions are not made by Sony, and they can’t negotiate contracts that would give them that power for all content people would like to see.

So, given they have control over their game platform and the leverage to dictate these terms (and Steam has the same terms) - on what basis is it “extremely likely”?
