It does not seem that you evaluate new consoles by the perspective of consoles, but of pc.
A console has to be popular, and for that, it has to be cheap to be sold on a large scale.
Ps5 / xtwo base, it has to cost up to 399 at launch, anything that comes above it, say 499 or 599 will get stranded miserably.
Think about what you can do with this price 399 then mount the hardware on top of that.
24/32 gb ram, 512 gb ssd are expensive pieces, unless the console costs 599 and still at a loss, it will not happen.
It would make a lot more sense to say let's say with a basic ps5 for mass 399 and a ps5 pro 599 for enthusiasts, but this in terms of launch production would be terrible.
