If you want a fast SSD you can get same or better on PC now, even if it isn't exactly the norm.
The area where it might catch up is in controller but that goes along with software stack to negotiate that access granularity.
I don't see that happening on PC for several reasons, but I'd be obliged if you could share specific developments in that regard.
If anything, I see PC compensating in other direction by just increasing RAM further, which may approximate similar outcome.
If games can fully leverage PS4 I/O that cultivates market for such game design, which large (V)RAM + SSD may roughly match.
