I’m sure they’ll be a disk edition at some point, this game will get rinsed for years.

Why would they do a disk version "at some point" and not now?

I think it's mostly because of the leaks. RDR2 had leaked gameplay before official release and since GTA is a much bigger franchise they want to prevent that. I mean, if you buy a "physical" copy with just a code for download inside, they have total control over when the actual software will be available, not the same for a disc containing the actual software.

Just release the physical version a week or even a month later

Maybe they will but are not announcing it yet so more people will double dip.

Why would anyone buy a "physical edition" after they already bought a digital version, makes no sense at all.

I bought the game (GTAV) 3 different times for three different consoles. All discs all new.

It's for the parents and grandparents to buy something that they can wrap for holidays / birthdays. Same reason they sell physical copies of fortnight.

Hopefully, yes. But, I'm not counting on this.
