Even if this was the case, assuming the rest of the hardware was pretty darn close to the same between the brands/models, this wouldn't necessarily mean good or bad things for PS or MS.
Using these specs, and the general assumption I've mentioned above, you could fairly easily guess the launch pricing of those 3 consoles.
4TF Lockhart - $299
10.2TF PS5 - $399
12TF Anaconda - $499
The main difference, focused mainly on pricing, compared to last gen, would be Lockhart at $299. Now Anaconda would actually be more powerful on paper than it's competition this time around, and maybe on screen as well, but when taking what's happened during this gen into account, the only thing that would really need to be taken seriously would be the addition of Lockhart. It would be the deciding factor on whether or not the Scarlett family can give PS5 a run for it's money. Anaconda may pick up some slack, but in this scenario, it's Lockhart that will make or break them.
While Lockhart would certainly be the cheapest option for those types of customers, PS5 in comparison would certainly seem like a massive value buy. For anyone with the money to burn, who also cares about getting the best deal, PS5 would be the blatant choice.
How many consumers fall into either category? How many would choose to spend less on Lockhart anyway and maybe get more games? How many would choose to save up for a couple years and get PS5 when it's price has finally dropped so they can afford it and some of it's games/exclusives? Just a few of many questions that I certainly don't have a solid answer for if this were to be the case.
