I don't think it will be quite that small.  If the only intent is to speed up the OS and the currently playing game I'd still say it would be 128GB min.  However, I think more likely it will be OS + a few games that you can choose to load/offload as you want, so probably 500GB to 1TB.

It will be like Intel Optane, it's will just functioning as temporary memory enhancement  , so it will not require more than 128 GB . So probably PS5 will have normal HDD or even probably an SSHD + nand flash memory like Intel optane 

Does it even need to include fancy memory?

Compare the average speed of a common 2.5'' 5400 rpm HDD (120 mbps) to a modern SSD (3000 mbps+) and the results are as good or even more impressive than what has been shown with Spiderman in the article. So far, what has been demonstrated and implied is consistent with a standard SSHD solution.
