You knew your options; you made your choice (Destiny)
Like others have said - a valid complaint can be made against the business practice as a whole (I'm not a fan, personally), but it's not "unfair". It's frustrating, it fractures the playerbase, and it has the potential to negatively affect the game. But it's not unfair. You knew what you were and weren't getting well in advance, and no one forced you to buy the version you did get (even if it was the only version available to you). No one pulled wool over your eyes, or swept the rug out from under you. They said "This is the thing you can buy. It doesn't come with this though" and you said "Yes please, I'll buy that thing".
So it is fair to charge people on two platforms the same price but to remove (or not add) some content to one of the platforms because of a business deal the player had not part in and no say in? Yes, valid complaints can be made against the practice as a whole, but they can also be made against individual occurrences of that practice. One should go along with the other!
Was I tricked into buy a game with less content? No. But I never claimed that I was. That's you guys bringing up this tricked thing. I said it sucks to be told up front that that you will be getting less content for your money and that is true. And I still think it is fair to say that practice is unfair.
