Sony shipped means the retailer has them in their warehouse. They're not on boats and planes. You think when Sony does their financial reports and reports the amount of consoles they shipped It's still being delivered? They've already been sold to retailers and are stocked. In PS5 case this generation, all are sold out. So shipped is sold.     

Yes and no.  The reports are written and reported after a quarter has already completed.  If a shipped unit is still stuck in transit at that time, then yes, it is reported as sold to client/shipped while still on a boat.

Let me reverse your question.  Do you think all the manufactures that had their goods stuck in the Suez Canal on the Ever Given for a week didn't report those goods as shipped?  Do you think that all the manufactures with product floating outside the Los Angeles/Long Beach port aren't reporting those goods as shipped yet?  

I'll sum it up for you. The report is noted on departure, not arrival.  Especially given that 3rd party distributors are often involved and even wholesalers if you aren't a major national chain.
