PS4 Pro’s inability to play 4K UHD discs is, no doubt, short-lived

That doesn't make sense at all. Firstly, your assumption that the laser currently in the console is able to process more layers than it was built for is completely grabbed out of the air. Secondly, The PS4 has a lot more worth to Sony than any Bluray player, simply because you can consume a lot more Sony content through a PS4 than you could with a Bluray player. I don't see any reason why Sony would actively discourage people from buying the PS4. The divisions are not a rivalry.

Well, it sound similar to "lets not announce this revision/upgrade to this console too early so it doesnt hurt the sales of the current console".

Well, they didn't do that either because it wouldn't have hurt the sales anyway. Sony doesn't give a shit which console you buy from them.
