It may have escaped you but every game is covered right now. Sky themselves show extended highlights off all bar the BT games.

As far as the rest of your post goes you are still basing your opinion on the here and now, and the present subscription model - and the chances of a recession lmfao,
You're also underestimating what people will pay to see their own team.
I would agree with yours, and most people on here, that we are at saturation point. Where I depart from that PoV is that I believe we are at saturation point for the present model of how PL games are packaged in this country.
Adding another 20 live games in the next round is not going to increase subscriptions for Sky. They will trumpet it (to death on SSNews) but that won't persuade people to sign up.
The only way to attract people who haven't signed up / won't sign up / have unsigned is to give them more games t
hat they want to see. That's what's crucial. People have become tired and weary of numbers. 126 live games per season means nothing when a lot of the games you want to watch take place on Saturday at 3pm.
And I repeat - ad nauseum - other countries do it
