If every game released is playable on the original PS4 model, I don't see how it will add any length at all. Games are still going to start to stale and devs are still going to want better machines because they're going to have to keep dumbing them down.

It's not devs that decide when a new generation is in order, it's when the sales curve starts going downwards. With a new model and lack of cheaper slim model the peak will be reached later, lengthening the generation.
Duming down has nothing to do with how long a gen is, sequelites setting in is a valid concern though.

Maybe, but the "stale" issue remains. I can't handle another 8 year gen. The 360 and PS3 should have been replaced in 2010 or 2011 imo.
