I didn't contridict myself. I said they CONSIDERED making it a standalone game. They wanted to pour enough effort into the online, and no more effort into the single player, that they figured they could just make it it's own game, until that news leaked, and people reacted FIERCELY.

At one time Sony CONSIDERED making the PS4 digital only, with used games not being an option. Doesn't mean that ever actually came to pass, but it WAS considered at one point. It shows what their intentions were. That's the difference, and the point of that statement.
