They do. You'll see a lot of hate for DLSS on social media, but if you go to the forums or any newly-released game that doesn't have DLSS, you'll find at least one post demanding that they implement it. If it's on by default, most people don't ever touch that setting and they're fine with it.

They shouldn't, but since the game has been enhanced, there's a good chance that something will go a little wrong and need a patch. I would actually guess that most of them end up with a patch, but only a few end up with game-breaking bugs and need a patch.
I'm not sure who needs this advice. The game was designed to be played without it, so that's good.
People that need the feature will use it, of course. For whatever reason.
Everyone else has a choice: Mindless running through the wilds to get where you're going, sometimes seeing something interesting on the way... Or just letting this thing get you there, without the "follow the white line" minigame.
The people who are going to use this were already using in-game features to do it as much as possible, but with a manual component that irked them. Asking them not to use it isn't going to improve their game experience.
Anyone who roams without the white line isn't even in this discussion. They would never use this feature, so the advice doesn't change their mind at all.
Those "former marketing leads" are former for a reason then, I guess. There's absolutely no way that Nintendo is going to "eat the cost" on this.
For one thing, the Chinese tariffs are more than 100%. They are certainly not going to pay to ship their console.
But they've been pretty clear in the past that they aren't about "loss leaders" and will charge what the console is worth.
