Why Sony should also use a Cell Processor for PS5 (x86+Cell coprocessor)

The Cell as an additional processor would be a waste of money, that component costs could be used much better at other places:
- a Ryzen based CPU + a modern GPU is probably fast enough to emulate a PS3 (and PS Vita, PS2, PSP and PS1)
- if the PS5 is PS4 compatible: how many games would profit from PS3 compatibility? Almost all good PS3 games already exist in an x86 version (PS4 or PC)
- Sony and third parties prefers to sell remasters, otherwise PS4 would have PS2 BC by now
- most third party developers would ignore the Cell coprocessor anyways
- the additional Cell wouldn't only increase the hardware costs, but also the power consumption

Yeah but the PS3 launch model also had PS2 hardware inside, 2 GPS and 2 CPUS and it was possible

- 90nm Cell CPU

- 90nm RSX GPU 

cant find PS2 information about nanometer except for this article https://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Sony-ueberarbeitet-Halbleiterstrategie-78735.html so was probably during this time

- 90nm Emotion engine

- 90nm Emotion eingine

 

today we have 45nm Cell processor and 14nm AMD CPUs and GPUs
