I would be happy if "pro" consoles never become a habit of console makers. Eventually, they would make exclusive games/content for those versions to further incentivize it. That's the "natural evolution" of mid gen upgrades or of tiered consoles. It's anti-consumer by nature. Also, it would make it more expensive for console makers to make consoles and for devs to make games for hardware.

Offering the choice between 2 console models which play the same games (main difference is the resolution) is anti-consumer?

And why would they make exclusive games/content for the more expensive model to further incentivize it? They make profit from the software, not the hardware... and the software for PS4 + PS4 Pro has the same price; the software for XBO + Scorpio will have the same price.

The issue is early adoption. Thanks to the PS4 Pro, and me ending up with 2 PS4s because of it, I will be waiting a bit for the PS5. Don't need 2 PS5s... But, I'd imagine the parts could potentially be interchangeable.

And it was impossible to you to sell one of your PS4s, if you only need one? Why would you have to buy two PS5s, if PS5 Basic (for FullHD TVs) and PS5 Pro (for 4K TVs) launch at the same time?
