You don't need parallel world. If you were here since gen 7 time you would have seem this flip several times.

It isn't even a factor of favoring faster SSD over faster CPU/GPU (except that most devs have been much more vocal about the SSD than the small difference in the CPU/GPU).

Your source to conclusion matches, but if you want better source listen to all devs, CGI, etc.

I don’t know if devs are really that much better of a source.  Everybody has an agenda and a lot of devs have more reason to have an agenda than most.  They actually have money at stake.  

Personally, I don’t expect a noticeable difference between the two.  Just like this gen when there was a much bigger gap, the differences are minor at best and if you weren’t running the versions side by side and pausing and zooming in, you would have a hard time telling them apart.

Next gen isn’t going to come down to the specs.  It’s going to come down to the games.  

When it is most devs and they are multiplatform developers they really don`t have a reason to gives more props to SSD on PS5 than GPU on XSX, they do because that is what they believe is important as game devs. On the other hand you have a very small number of devs saying the SSD is pointless.
