I've been playing alot on PCSX2 and PPSSPP lately and I remembered that they have this feature. This got me thinking "Why emulators with small dev teams have this, but a billion dollar companies like Sony or Microsoft can't add this?" I don't see any problems with it being added. Hell, I even think that it would be one of the greatest 'quality of life' features. If someone would like to try a game and see if he wants to platinum it but doesn't like having unfinished games on their profile, he could just turn trophies off and see if the game is his cup of tea without having to make a burner account. If he ends up liking it, he could just turn them on and the trophies that would have been unlocked up to the point where he stopped, would autopop.
I don't recall Sony being interested in keeping trophies 'valuable' or anything like thar. It treats they as a "fun side activity", so why not add this and make trophy hunters' lives easier (and of course, everyone else's)?
