There will be a PS5. What we are seeing is a slight change in the generational game. From now on, we will probably be getting a half generational leap every 3 years, instead of a whole one every 6 years. You don't honestly think Sony or MS is going to demand games that come out 5-6 years from now to be compatible with the OG PS4 and XBO do you? Not going to happen.

Plus, Sony makes a ton of money off of HW. And they'll be making even more now that they have switched to x86 chips that are mostly off the shelf. By 2019, we'll have a PS5 announced, which will probably be ~9-10 Tflops.

Is it really that important what they will call the Neo 2?

It will matter, because it will help differentiate generations for consumers.  The Neo and Scorpio are still part of the PS4 and XBO generation.  That's why all future games will support both models.  However, when the PS5/XB2 launches, this will no longer be the case.  People will have to upgrade to the PS5/XB2(if there is one) to get the newest games.
