Sony is going to take the same route.  Both systems are going to take advantage of the SSD in a huge number of ways. 

>Having a HDD to move to SSD what you are playing is much better than uninstalling.

You can do this.  

Store Xbox Series X games on external HDD.  

Play Series X games on internal SSD.  

Store and play Xbox One, 360, Xbox games on external HDD.

IF they support external HDD than that's fine.

Specially for the PS5 if it's BC, as I can just keep using mine on the PS5 instead.

But I know if Sony also goes the SSD expansion route the prices will be out of this world.

I still can't believe how much Vita SD cards costs, it's ridiculous. Now imagine that with a tech Sony is clamming to be the specially advanced for their SSD... A 1TB add-on would cost a PS4 itself xP

Not sure how much Sony or MS will charge on the external SDD. But for PSVita and PSP one of the reasons for the high price was scale. Not really being propietary but the low production didn't help to bring cost and price down.
