Well the SSD for PS5 being twice the speed would probably mean it would cost more to manufacture than MS solution even with the heatsink and other stuff on the stick.

Probably, yes.

Now however, SNY should not only have the cheaper option, but all the long term storage benefits, minus simplicity.

What will be available from MS in 3-4 years vs what SNY will have at it's disposal?

Both will have higher size and cost will most likely depend on how much MS is capable of selling versus PCI 4.0 becomes cheaper over time for PS5. So in 3 to 5 years certainly will be much cheaper to put an external SDD to PS5 than XSX for the same size and with PS5 being twice as fast.
