Might Sony go with a two-SKU strategy next-gen (like Microsoft did with Series S)?

I doubt Sony would go for 2 separate models, they want to keep things simple for developers. If you compare the installed base of current gen, 30 million PS5, 15 million Series S and 6 million Series X (using roughly 70/30 distribution from UK data), it is clear where to developer focus is going to be. In general, it is the optimization of software that yields best gaming performance.
