Sony's not set up to do business in those countries to begin with, so they're not really losing anything to piracy from those users. They've already had to issue refunds to buyers from those regions with the Helldivers fiasco, so it's pretty clear that there is something blocking Sony from selling games in those countries. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the required account linking is why Sony can't sell to those areas.
