Sony wouldn't pay the costs for a die shrink though. AMD would, some of that cost might trickle down to Sony, but it's not like Sony would have to pay the hundreds of millions of dollars a die shrink costs.

uhm .. AMD certainly doesn't have that money to "waste"

if Sony insisted on AMD doing a 28nm -> 14/16nm die shrink "for free" after the probably planed 28nm -> 20nm one seemingly failed imo they would run a very high risk of bankrupting their APU supplier and in the aftermath of that losing out on hundreds of millions to billions of PS4 related profits
