Assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups. And even if accurate, is this bad news or something? It was well done by MS.
This gen is over as soon as the next gen starts, so 7 months from this point on. It might be over by now already if you see the decreasing interests in this generation. You should have been here in 2008, every week was a shitstorm about new numbers. Anyway, otherwise the PS2 generation is not even finished till 2015 and the SNES generation was still going in 2003, while the PSOne generation was still going when the PS3 released.
I am not saying the PS5 will be available in 6-7 years, but it will 'come up' - rumors etc. Just like Xbox 3 and PS4 are 'coming up' right now.
I don't know how we got here, but fact is that sony shoudl rethink their strategy. They really don't need a financial nightmare like the PS3 all over again.

and you used the Vita to illustrate that point, only the Vita is not a financial nightmare which is my point

I say wait and see. With sales like these, the 3rd party support might struggle. The R&D for the vita and the biggest marketing campaign Sony ever did need to be recouped first. I think the pricepoint is too high. They saw the 3DS struggle at this price, why would it work with the PS Vita? They have to cut the price to get at least some market share, which will kill their profits.
