This would be the dumbest move in PlayStation history if Sony actually does this.

It is such a horrific idea it's not even funny.

If this console exists in any capacity, the PS4.5 might be able to output in 4K for video files/4K blu ray only. It will not affect games unless Sony wants to piss off both developers and their fan base.

Why would they piss off developers?

I don't think having an optional, far more power SKU of the same/similar architecture will be much work on their behalf. Especially if resolution is the main use of that added power.
