It’s just a vocal minority. Every single sales metric available to us and publishers says physical is dead.

That's somewhat misleading. You can't reduce physical media availability then point at it saying "look people aren't buying it" because they don't have access to it in the first place, by design.

I mean I'm sure since digital media has become mainstream there's a shift, but it was a planned force shift to increase profits.

They haven’t reduced availability of physical Xbox and PlayStation games though. Ever. They’ve been making them, people just don’t buy them.
