not really. some games are too deep or long to actually play on the subway anyways, so it might be fun to play that ona bigger screen.

kinda like the GBA expansion for the gamecube. playing FFTactics or Castlevania or [insert rpg name here] on a bigger screen is indeed a lot more relaxed

currently, i dont think there are any games for psp worth playing on a big screen & soundsystem though

Those games defeat the purpose of the system, too!

The whole idea behind the handheld systems is to be able to play portable games for short periods of time, not sit in front of them for hours at a time (barring road trips, of course).

If by defeats you mean extends without loss of functionality then... yes, it defeats it

I dont really see the point in playing a psp on a tv. I bought my psp to play while im out and about on public transport and doing stuff like that.
