Greetings! I feel a certain aspect of the game has been under-discussed.
As we know, the war aspect of the game has a cross-platform feature in which we all vie for territory for our respective factions. We also know that the game will not be cross platform playable, which is understandably a rather difficult feature to implement. However, that begs the question, why do we not have cross platform progression? (Example: you level your favorite hero to ten on ps4, and then hop on to PC and it is also level 10 there.)
The cross-platform progression already has a base to go off of, and many more games are already doing this as is. This makes it very difficult to choose a platform on which to play on with multiple friends, and even more so discourages players from purchasing multiple copies of the same game for different consoles. I see no negatives in this feature, aside from contractual obligations to Sony and Microsoft (Which is the case for games such as Smite, yet also exempted with newer contracts for games such as Paragon).

At the very least, would it be possible to have a representative respond to the question of "Would it at the very least be contemplated to be added later on release?"
I also would appreciate anyone's opinions on the matter.
