I've actually suggested next gen should have a low tier and high tier option. But I think the only significant disparity you would want is GPU. That way the disparity is mostly resolution/graphics settings. So maybe the budget option varies from 1080p-4K. (like the X1X), while the premium achieves 4K regularly.

If you do that, then there will be almost no difference betweek a next gen PS5 low tier and a PS4 pro. PS4 pro handles 2k, 4k with checkboarding. Also console people wouldn´t like something like that, cause they would feel that the good one is expensive and the low tier is garbage. A lot of people didn´t even like the ps4 pro update 3 years later at the same price as PS4 at lauch. Also it would be harder for developers if after 3 years you have a PS5 pro. Developers would have to work 3 different resolutions.
The idea is not bad at all, it would be like PC, but I guess people and developers wouldn´t like that and would be very hard for marketing.
I would go for a good PS5 and then launch upgrades every 3 years to keep the sales hot. To succeed I think PS5 should have backwards compatibility with ps4 and awesome exclusive games only for PS5 that can show what you can make with a much faster CPU and GPU.
