I prefer to think of it as "some people weren't happy about it", an objective truth that applies to literally everything that has happened in human history.
Definitely. In this case, though, those people especially are in a position to impact people's impression on the game, which could hurt them a bit sales-wise. That's an objective downside to that decision. An objective benefit to that decision is that those advertised games get more exposure.

The point of conversation is which outweighs the other, a completely subjective opinion, which is the reason you can have a debate on the topic. The point of the main menu suggestion was to, hopefully, get more people to agree that the benefits outweigh the downsides. That's only a good thing.

Really to me, it's the fact that I can bypass any of those commercials by just getting the source material. If I watch Pulp Fiction (yes I love this example) on TV, I'd have to endure a number of commercials.

In the same way, I might have to watch a couple ads on youtube to watch through gameplays of New n Tasty. The difference is, even when I buy the game, I can't escape the ads.
