Sony want's to capture every point on the demand curve, as long as there
are other DSLR manufactures it pays them to sell them sensors, but
there's a much higher profit margin on DSLRs and they would certainly
want to sell Nikon and Pentax' former customers DSLRs instead.

I don't believe that for a minute.
I don't think they believe they can *do* it, but they're certainly
trying, or, at least, I can't come up with another explanation of just
why they're willing to so heavily subsidize their DSLR camera line.
That's the usual Sony pattern for "we want a dominant-to-crushing
position in this industry".
I suspect if they really wanted to put other DSLR makers out of
business they wouldn't be selling sensors to Nikon and Pentax.
