We need 2 occurrences to happen so PS5 exist.

Performance leap... something that can be at least 10x better than PS4 (4x PS4Pro, which is small)
SW sales and HW starting to decrease for we to mark the release of the new console at about 2 years after it start declining.

Neither happened yet, so 3 years is almost the minimum for PS4.

I think thats overkill for the PS5..... you dont need 18 Tflops for 4k.

Xbox One X is barely 6tflop and a weak cpu, and its doing okay.

12 Teraflops would be enough for PS5, along with 16 GB ram & stronger CPU, and just aim for that sweet 400$ again.

I dont want Sony go go overboard and make a 500-600$ monster console (repeat of ps3)... I rather they stuck to their 400$ price point.

PS4Pro is also doing fine, but why make a PS5 with only 3x more than PS4Pro? Better wait another year make a 400USD with a 50USD loss to be covered in games... The leap must be meaningfull, otherwise it will be done only because the sales have dwindled.
