What is so bad about keeping all your games and peripherals, just to upgrade the box (PS4 to PS4.5)?

i said normal console circle , almost. Which refers to console gaming as a whole.  And Sonys normal circle is 5 years

How can you say their normal console cycle is 5 years, when their first gen was 5 and a half, then 6, then 8? 

4 Years is way too short for the modern console. Sony's never done it, microsoft did it once but then took 9 years. And Nintendo even took 6 years between Wii and Wii U, and 5 years on their 'failed' Gamecube. 

I'm a huge playstation guy, but if this is a significant upgrade it's a definite mistake. 

its 1 year difference where is it too short? It wasd still 5 years not 6 years. And from the SNES to the PS1 its also only 5 years or even less
