How would you feel if the PS5 dev kit design was actually the PS5 design?

You can have PCI-E 3.0 SSD setups that will beat the Playstation 5's or PCI-E 4.0 SSD setups, it depends how many PCI-E lanes you want to throw at the problem.

Sony made a claim, that the Playstation 5's SSD setup is faster than the PC, they didn't specify what PC in particular.

You quoted Cerny's statement yourself "higher than any SSD available for PCs" - that's singular = 1 SSD. A raid setup is not a singular SSD.

You can have a singular SSD faster than the PS5's SSD.
They tend to come in PCI-E card format... But shh. Tell no one.

I'm not defending anybody and I'm not saying you're definitely wrong about the SSD. I'm saying for you to assume based on what info is available, that you're likely correct about the SSD set up, but to take the info that is available about historical console specs and pricing, etc, and say that $500 isn't a likely price and shouldn't be taken into account at all, is just nonsense. The price of the console determines to some degree what's inside it, which would effect your SSD guess.

I also never said the PS5 SSD would beat all PC's or anything close to that.

Yes, the PS4 is based off of existing PC tech that has been semi customized for it's application.

By Pro I meant minor semi customizations and not major one's, since it will be a new gen but also because the income is there since the brand is hot.

So if PS5 is $999 but worth $1,499 and Scarlett is $499 but worth $699, you'll choose the PS5 since that will clearly be the most compelling, since price doesn't matter? What about the other tens of millions of people who want a PS5 but can't come close to affording it, ever? Tough luck? Maybe PS might want to pick an affordable price and base the hardware around that, with potential reasonable subsidies?

I am not discounting that $500 is the likely price point.
I am taking issue with your goal post moving, which is to use pricing in your argument when pricing wasn't in Sony's original statements.

And yes, I would chose the Playstation 5 if it was $1,000 and Scarlett was $500 but the Playstation 5 had superior hardware, I am a hardware enthusiast.
For those who couldn't afford it? That's not really my concern or problem, that is theirs and Sony's.
