This again?
Your "evidence" is nothing but your usual nonsense business people sputters from time to time. Example, EA's CTO said back in May that the Xbone and PS4 was a generation ahead of high-end PCs. Hilarity ensued!
Some links:

http://www.forbes.com/sites/johngaudiosi/2012/03/06/gdc-2012-pc-games-raked-in-18-6-billion-in-2011/
http://venturebeat.com/2013/05/07/ea-misses-slightly-on-revised-earnings-but-hits-its-revenue-targets/
http://software.intel.com/en-us/blogs/2013/03/28/pc-gaming-is-big-and-getting-bigger-good-time-to-be-a-developer
So if anything is evident here, any sane person ignore the "predictions" from doomsayers and see how PC gaming continues to thrive through indie, F2P and other exciting technologies like Oculus Rift and Omni VR.

CCP doesn't have much of a choice.
If they don't compete, and the MMO players decline (due to consoles), they have to do something.
What EvE may become is more mainstream (and honestly I hope so, because it's the only way to bring in the real human numbers). A game has 2 choices mainstream or sandbox, but if your customer base is dwindling because of consoles -- and the game can't adapt to consoles -- what choice do they have?

CCP does NOT need some **** from EA to make a better gaming company. EA has proven itself to be a cancerous mass in the gaming industry and regardless of Sean Decker's resume or what CCP thinks he can bring to the table should not be allowed in to CCP's company period, let alone as high of a position as "Senior Vice President".
I do not trust EA. I do not believe what they say they stand for. And i will not put faith in an ex-EA employee so that he can risk ******* up what CCP has worked and struggled on all these years, which has resulted in a truly unique and stand along gaming experience.

This is not even close to happen.
First because PC games are the bases of all gaming styles you ever see around and second because consoles are getting closer and closer of just another PC and not the other way around.

Then you are a bad predictor.
Even before we attack the second expansion I already had the chance to be in in the second top Europe killers team (yep this was my internet gaming goal at that time so what???) and we had this post from some anonymous internet nerd guy with the exact content explanation and close name to what it has been done for about 10 years as expansions and content.
You are wrong and time will prove it.
Edit because I can: Eve is far more complicated than the most complicated scrip you can find in whatever game out there because there's a factor other games do not account and will never be able to by design: players MADE content and this brilliant concept of free to play a_la_Eve.

Um, so what? You have yet to actually prove anything.
This is EVE, please do us all a favor and just go back to WoW, you seem more comfortable how they do things there. You only seem to want to implement your bad ideas here no matter how asinine, while expecting us to believe you are some kind of an "expert" or "wizard".

You're chasing ghosts.
When gaming companies embraced consoles as the means to deliver their product, what do you think the outcome would be? PC gaming growing?
They're going at best hybrid now. BF3 is a perfect example of it, XBox; PS3 and PC. And that's the future of gaming.
I don't make the decisions, I'm just pointing out the reality.
