I hope I'm just missing the sarcasm in this post because if I'm not, you're blissfully unaware of the large number of Xbox 360 owners who did exactly this. Messages boards all over the net were flooded with people claiming their 360 was defective when in fact they did exactly what you say they will diligently not do; cramming it in small places, placing the unit and or power brick on the floor, etc... Plus all the "disk scratching issues" that were due to people moving the 360 from horizontal to vertical while a game was in use (while not directly related to your post, it shows that the common console owner is incapable of using reason with this new generation of consoles).
It has been noted many times by others that people are still used to the (S)NES/Genesis days when they can sprawl out on the floor, game console on the carpet, covered in piles of dirty clothing and still function properly.
If the PS3 has heat issues, this will absolutely be a large scale problem*
* Okay, maybe not that large however, people who are happy with their console purchase don't make much noise.

P.S. No, I didn't include any links or references; I don't have the time... Mod me down or flame away if you must.
